Oops, No I was referring to Delta, I misread the post I quoted and thought they were referring to DAL vacation bidding. Senior folk at Delta can only bid either one week, or two consecutive weeks in round one of vacation bidding......but to be fair, most senior pilots can hold xmas off anyway, and if they bid xmas vacation they won't be able to greenslip it, so most senior folk would take the weeks in the summer on round one.
