Bid 2018-12

For those of you considering upgrade, this bid is AS managements insurance from the SLI. They are stacking this event prior to the SLI to prevent what could be significant training costs. There is a very real chance that this is the majority, if not all, of 737 upgrades for the next 12 mos. I hope this is not true but on paper this is the most likely outcome. If you are considering the jump I feel this information should be made clear to you. Hopefully better news will be on the horizon. Plan for the worst and you will not be disappointed.

Seniority list integration. We should have the arbitrated list by mid October.

There most likely will... A few upgrades maybe, no upgrades probably. The bid will have FO positions and any 320 FO, based on their seniority, will be able to bid any 737 position.
