Also, I think that a lot of "good deals" that the South FAs like would be gone (junior FAs can bid Purser, make 20% more, no pure reserve schedules. Even junior FAs essentially have a line, with only 3 or 6 reserve days in it. I suspect that under the North rules, it would be more of a pilot reserve system. Very bad for the junior FAs.
