Paul Carlson, in the Crew Resources Update, stated that LAX777 would close and specifically advised LAX777 crews to not participate in the vacancy bid in order to preserve their displacement rights. LAX777 is a small enough base that almost every LAX777 pilot should know this within the next couple of days.
