Will be interesting to see how junior the 73/Guppy Left Seat goes this time around...
I would guess that there might be a handful of mid to bottom (top) pack that bid it with the idea of not being on reserve at their new seniority. That being said, there's also this issue that some WON'T bid it as they don't want to be in training over the summer.

Funny thing is that if you compare the unfilled Capt slots from 2 bids ago to this one (on the 73/Guppy) there a big difference still.
121 Unfilled vs 40 Open slots, this time around.
And no A320 Capt slots though they had 34 Unfilled positions on that bid too. Then again, seems that there are still A320's stored/parked in the boneyard.

Great news for all the Capt slots and it's positive movement that's for sure.. But notice that there are no 777/Triple slots. Tells me there's concern about that fleet (aircraft and destinations) going forward.

Either way.. Congrats to those making the move~
Always
