It’s great to see all this movement!

One of the nice things about displacement rights is the ability to go anywhere that someone junior to you is at AND not have a seat lock.

How often does AA have vacancy awards??

About every 3 months since we stopped doing them monthly.

It's 600 junior to that. Old numbers the award is for 11.9 guys. That's pretty crazy. I really didn't think it would go that junior but maybe we're seeing what Delta was seeing. Lots of newer, younger guys who are bypassing now because they have 30+ years left and no desire to commute to sit reserve in NY.

Personally I know, unless things drastically change, I won't be bidding NY CA on anything ever. That place is a cesspool. Being based there for six weeks was enough!

777 FO down to 12,395

Ya but for 270/hr I’d sit short call in Afghanistan. So nyc is no biggie to me.

12345 was DFW, not a huge difference

On the plus side it probably won't be for long

CLT is now the most senior of the NB/WB was bases. ORD and DFW are neck and neck for a distant second.

This is the first of the really big ‘movement’ bids. A friend of mine got the 777 in DFW and we was over a hundred away on the Aug bid. On this bid, he got it and so do almost 60 below him! He’s going to be a lineholder instantaneously.

I was over 2900 away from the 777 in DFW in the Aug bid - I’m now less than 800... and the movement hasn’t even begun in earnest yet.
