I like my cold feet in the UP at 6 am!
I cannot see a 24 month seat lock a good thing. What if we take on 10-20 more RJ's. That means people through the 700's on the seniority list would be upgrading. Why take your chance away?
all for the big shiny one
I think we have seen how good seat locks are recently, if you cant find qualified pilots those locks have to come off. And those 700 # guys will still be sitting reserve forever. To me it is all about QOL, and flying a metal pig around the midwest 7 times a day is the farthest thing from quality. That being said I am in a better position than most and dont need to chase the left seat that I could already hold, but reserve is no way to live
