In your scenario, lets say a junior FE is initially awarded A300 FO. But two weeks later during the Displacement Bid, he is then displaced from A300 FO to ANC FO (instead of back to DC-8 FE as per desired system bid). All of this happens before the effective date of the bid, and while still serving as an FE. Does he now have displacement rights (no two year seat lock), even though it is an "upgrade"?
