Seniority is now assigned per the contract by the last 4 of your SSN (lowest is senior) vs. oldest birth date which was what it was previously.
There's currently 10 LAS MD-80 FO vacancies on the August bid, the august class will be included with this bid and since there aren't any airbus guys that will bid LAS MD-80 the class will most likely be stuck with that and the remainder will probably be airbus.
