I don’t think many of you realize how many senior San Diego and Temecula people commute to LAX and SFO. San Diego will become a senior base and most of it will be covered by the reductions or SFO and LAX pilots. Wouldn’t be surprising to see captains downgrade to FO to hold San Diego.

Seriously! These people think being awarded an upgrade means they will hold the seat forever. Downgrades are part of the risk of bidding first available upgrade.

I never said it wasn’t possible and it hasn’t happened yet either. Sounds like you’re going to have a miserable couple months waiting for the news

Not if you can’t hold it.
