Your second sentence makes no sense/ is untrue. The 824 were part of the Remedy for grievance Flo-0108, and allowed to Flow in order. After them, the Protected Pilot Group went. Protected Pilots included Eagle Rights guys who had a third bite at the apple. A few went due to AA's pay raises/ 401k enhancements.
As to the last two sentences- That's rich. Let me quote, from guys senior to me:
"I'm just exercising my seniority/ contractual rights."
Perhaps you said it yourself. I was an eight yr. FO who upgraded to Capt. in 2008, and was displaced back the day after I finished OE. I earned my FT slot every bit as much as those who went before me, and those who came after. If you flowed- congrats- you're still senior. If not- you live with your decisions just like all the rest of us. And, you're still senior. Have a great day!!
