In the most extreme example, say that all the CA vacancies go to ORF reserve or line CA , but no existing CA in LGA,PHL , or DCA want to fill those spots , then they would go to FO's that have a preference for ORF CA
I told you with this recent bid, there would be no upgrades because they were reducing the amount of RSV CAs.
I know of one who can hold a line but did not see them get awarded anything. I flew with him a month ago and he said he was going to take the next one. Not sure what happened. Nor did I see anyone else who may have bypassed to avoid the adventures of being on RSV.
