So you would enter EWR 787 F/O (and any other choices in order), then leave the volunteer box unchecked. At least that is the way it worked in prior displacements.

Also, you can play the bump game. Bump into a category where everyone expects more bumps due too many pilots bumping into the fleet. Then get bumped again....and again....all the while, E.G. if you are a 757 pilot with no plane to fly, you get paid to stay at home. When the 727's were parked, we had pilots being bumped and training cancelled for over a year. Paid to stay at home....
Agreed, not very good for the company, but the contract is what it is.
Enforce your contract, insist on it!
