Correct?
Does this sort of thing happen all the time?
The answer SHOULD be no, it doesn't happen all the time. The company must run a displacement for that to happen. Generally this happens with a base closure or when eliminating a fleet... so not often.
HOWEVER:
The CRJs are leaving by the end of the year and there will be a displacement then.
ALSO, the company has been forcing qualified FOs to upgrade and is treating the forced upgrade like a displacement. This has been happening every three months. If you're a non-qualified FO, this doesn't effect you, you won't be displaced out of base or equipment. But qualified FOs and junior captains are getting displaced from one base or equipment to another.
