Lots of L-AA guys are still coming to CLT.

Yep. I’ve been in CLT 2.5yrs and haven’t moved on the list. Maybe down a place or two if anything...

CA’s or FO’s?

Both.

I understand the guys that live here or are from here. Now we have guys just moving here and that equates to no movement or going backwards.

CLT is senior, but not the most senior. I'd be over 10% more senior in CLT as a bus fo, than I would be in DFW on either the bus or 73.

Seniority is all relative. If you are a new hire and want 320 to CLT it is the most senior. If you have been here a while, PHX is pretty senior for 320 FO. It just depends on how you look at it.

That maybe true for you, but for me as a late 2014 hire, DFW/FO/737/D gives me my worst seniority in Dallas at around 70% which is still 10% better than my roughly 80 percentile in CLT. As of December vacancy.

True, however the statement was CLT was "probably the most senior narrow body base". So thats not really true. I'd be 20%ish in CLT, 30%ish in DFW on either airplane, and 65% in PHX, as an FO.

In my current 737/CA status, I can only hold LGA or MIA, and I'd be almost 15% more senior in LGA. So as much as it pains me, my bid for LGA is back in. MIA is the best narrow body flying in the system, IMHO.

He also said for a new hire, not someone who is senior enough to be a CA...if you are a new hire CLT has and is currently taking one of the longest times to get into...and yes we all know that past results are no indication of future performance, so it could change, but that’s the way it is right now.

You should stay in MIA :D

Reading comprehension is hard for some to grasp. Unsure what the debate even was. For new hires CLT absolutely is the most senior and nearly impossible to get into. Guess some just can’t read.
