The other thing is that the company has already announced the end of MSP 200 but didn't really start the process of that yet... There are over 100 MSP pilots that will soon have to decide where to go ( if they bother to stay at this company at all, I hear Sun Country and Delta are hiring ) What are your base choices, airplane choices and priorities? You have to basically rank and prioritize those. For those that live in a base, that should be a relatively easy task based on bidding for home first, for those that commute, it becomes a question of commutability and commuting costs, blend in your seniority and go from there.
