Looks like plenty of GRR to go around still!

Just to make sure that I and the new hires are understanding you correctly, this is the awards if they closed today. This month’s vacancy doesn’t close until the 19th.

No rumors. There is zero planned West Coast growth. While it could change tomorrow, this is a tough airline if you are looking for movement on the West Coast.

Also, while we are discussing the new hire bid awards, golf clap for the #1 GRR bidder (name redacted to protect the innocent). With 16 openings from last month and 2 vacancies for this month, which will most likely be filled by new hires, that guy knows how to get some seniority as a new hire!

Thanks for the clarification.

Also, the vacancy that we are doing now will open up for the September new hires to bid.
And... It looks like last week's class is able to pick up any of the openings from the current bid as well, now that their initial bases have been assigned.
