True, but it's not everything. We have plenty of negotiated CBA items that aren't 100% seniority-based. The open time cap, out-of-base/on-vacation open time rules, open time priority, the new vacation bidding system, even the current ROR language (when there are positive vacancy numbers) -- all of those provisions supersede seniority to a degree.

I believe displacements are another area where domicile stability in our pilots' lives should be a higher priority than just seniority. Nobody displaced? Then seniority wins. Displaced pilots waiting to get back home? They should have priority on all awards -- not just positive vacancy numbers. Just like Open Time Priority puts junior guys ahead of senior bidders in MOT when they are put below guarantee due to overlap drops. It's all in what we negotiate.
