Hard fought schedule, indeed. Imagine if a pilot stayed on the crappiest, second-lowest paying airplane at the company (MD88) just to build seniority…so said pilot could bid specific trips and layovers. Only to be routinely rerouted with little to no thought given. Completely negates any seniority advantage other than rotation show time.
