LUS was all International qualified by default, so after the merger all previous LUS bases and pilots are International Qualled. LAA was split up 737 Domestic and 737 International as an example. our new contract allows the company to merge everyone to International if they want. They are starting to do that with the MIA 320 in May...IIRC. I think the LAA guys were not wanting it to change, due to two statuses requiring more pilots. On a personal level though, I think it will be better as one bid status.
The 190 does fly to the Bahamas and does some off season Caribbean work as well.

For most of the line guys I know, myself included, the issue is that we don't want to fly narrow body "international", and the split status allowed us to do that. Many of us would prefer not to go anywhere south of McAllen, let alone anywhere in south or central America.

But knowing that many people feel differently, it's nice to be able to bid domestic if you don't want to deal with it, or international, if that's your preference.

Why is that?
