Realignment/Displacement Bid Opens 10/8
On Oct. 8, the first of three realignment/displacement bids will be opened to begin the process of moving crewmembers off the B-747 classic fleet and to expand the B-747-400 and MD-11 fleets.
The bid reflects the upcoming network changes associated with these draw downs/expansions. Subsequent bids will be open in January and May 2008.
See the table below for specific numbers of crewmembers to added and removed from the individual fleets.
As a result of this bid, there will be no additional new hires required. 16 current DC-8 second officers will eligible for upgrade to remaining positions systemwide.
Number of
Positions A/C Seat Domicile
+14 MD-11 F/O SDF
+18 74Y CPT ANC
+42 74Y F/O ANC
-11 757 F/O SDF
-15 747 CPT SDF
-17 747 F/O SDF
-30 747 S/O SDF
-3 DC-8 CPT SDF
-12 DC-8 F/O SDF
Would someone with knowledge of the contract spell this out in short sentances with small words?
1. Do the displaced pilots get their preference of domicile / seat (in seniority of course) or is only what's offered (with plus signs in the above)?
2. If you get displaced on probation is it a paid move? I probably know, but I have to ask anyway.
Thanks in advance!
