I think that the company putting it out as a "vacancy bid" versus a "displacement bid" confused some people (the companies evil plan to save money for those moving days and moving costs).
JFK Captain and JFK FO should be the only crew bid of anyone in JFK. If you are CVG based, and want DTW, then I could see bidding for it.
One thing that worried me was: If enough senior CVG FO's bid for DTW Captain, and some JFK Captains get downgraded (AGAIN!) to FO in DTW....could this fill up DTW FO spots enough that when the time comes, the lower JFK FO's (just recalled) get displaced to CVG? That would be the point where I would quit (because I don't like CVG and the commute to CVG sucks, and did I mention, I don't like CVG?)
On a related note: Here's hoping that they one day displace the 700/900 fleet to NYC (JFK/LGA) causing many senior captains to leave Comair, which will cause upgrades, which will be goooooood. And I will be among the first to bid 700/900 NYC!
