So the numbers will temporarily go up.
I’ve been hearing this a lot out on the line. Guys concerned about their current seat impacting their placement on the SLI. As far as I understand it ALPA merger policy stovepipes the seniority list so the actual seat you’re currently sitting in shouldn’t matter in regards to the SLI. The only time the seat you’re sitting in would matter is if we were merging with a non ALPA carrier. Please correct me if I’m wrong.
