This could change things. It's only fair though. That's the way the contract was written.
This isn't correct. Anyone in the 50 can bid for JFK and go if they want. The #22 CRC was thinking of doing it as he would have been #1 in JFK. The problem is that the most Junior person not displaced that didn't want to go to JFK was now stuck on the bottom of the 50 list and didn't have an opportunity to bid to the 70.
I don't see how running the bids the way the contract states will change the end result, but at least it is being done the correct way.
