Won't need it as PBS is PFM.

I for one haven't forgotten, in fact I'm reminded of it every month when I have 2 fewer days to bid now

I am guessing ANC is a senior base for new FOs? :(

Somewhat, although it isn’t unheard of to be offered to newhires. If you don’t get it initially, it should be attainable within a few months out of training.

I have a friend who is just finishing up OE this month and will be Seattle based. As long as OE finishes on time he’ll only spend 4 days on reserve in Seattle before his bid for Anchorage is effective.

I wouldn’t count on getting it in ground school. However, in the last bid October hires were able to hold it, and there were about a dozen FO vacancies.

"Growing" you are such a management hack. Any growth will just be replacing what was cut from SFO, given to the RJ's.
Go back to your office and stop blowing smoke up everyones %#=#.

…don’t blow a coronary…. How odd an expression.

Don’t have a coronary makes better sense.

So sorry, please excuse my poor choice of wording. I did skip heart day in medical school…
