Aren’t you like, the bottom 95% of captains in SEA for the past year or two and the most seniority you got on the FO list before you upgraded was 35%? I mean if 25% of your base on the FO side is senior to you, then I’m sure you have some holdouts that are ready to upgrade.

Not trying to be mean brother but I hear you. I’ve been at my airline now for a few years and took the first upgrade I could. I’m still stuck doing crappy redeyes on the 737 instead of flying wide bodies to Amsterdam in the left seat because my company hates junior people. I think that’s funny too.
