The mistake you're making is you think it'll be B6 flying those longhaul pax.
A quick google search will show you that AAG codeshares with +20 partners.
But, like you said time will tell.

Or maybe the NEA came to pass because they have plans for B6 to take flying when they reduce contract flying (Republic, Mesa) and if/when one or more of the WOs is gone in a few years? Just curious.

Wow, DFW base is being offered to new hire class of December.
Congrats for those that want it and can hold it.
Nice to see some positive trends.

Is that because all those that want to transfer out of NYC, etc. have done so? Or is it just through the dog a bone?

Guess the next few bids will tell. Will it be a one time shot, or will it be an ongoing trend? Anyone’s thoughts?

The bottom two DFW NB awards on the last bid finalized when they were barely a few days out of indoc. If ANYONE else had a bid in for DFW, it would have been awarded.
Despite the reduction in the forecast on this last bid, 73FO manning is 60 in the hole right now, 80+ when out bounds (upgrades, etc) are factored in over the next few months. The vacancy bid forecasts are crap, but it’s the only data point available to measure the trend. Seems like new hires should be able to get DFW for the foreseeable future.

Yep, that is what my neighbor was saying after I posted my question. He has the DFW 73FO scheduling desk this week.
