I guess it might by a tiny bit. But relative seniority is…relative. Would senior JB BOS pilots bail to DL to be JR BOS NB pilots? Doubtful. We’re probably talking a dozen or two pilots tops who would bail for that reason when they would stay otherwise. Originally Posted by AYLflyer

If they were to put a NB base and keep the WB base there as well, that opens up opportunity for movement and career advancement.
