Just remember they first run the preference bids. THEN the proffer for displacements preferences are run with whatever is left over.

Preference what you actually want otherwise someone junior to you might get it if you only proffer to displace.

You will be kicking yourself if you could have held DFW or wherever else you wanted, but instead we’re displaced to LGA, meanwhile someone way junior to you gets DFW because they preferenced DFW but you only proffered to displace.

If you’re super junior and likely to get LGA anyway, then just proffer to displace and don’t be away locked.

I would take a seat lock in a different type rather than commute and risk 6-12 months or more in a commuting situation if i could have lived in base. But that’s just me, everyone has different priorities.
