One is being awarded your first captain seat while still on a freeze. In this case, they will just add your remaining freeze to your new 2 year freeze.
I guess I"m just wondering why them telling people wrong information would affect what people were putting as their preferences? I guess I'm also wondering why people even asked.

If someone told me I was frozen on the DC-9, I would still have Carl's -400 A seat bid in no matter what.

I think as a former North guy, because the "cards" ran every month on the 5th, I'm used to leaving my preferences in all year round. Is there a reason I shouldn't do that under the AE system?
