Last R9 they were saying that 33% of the 320/CAs retire in 2019. That HAS to open up some FO positions after backfill.
Bid every FO position in CLT. Wait and see what happens, especially during the holidays. How long to hold 330 FO in CLT? |
The current indicators are indicating that every indication indicates CLT 330 is >15 years

The one problem with that is I think the lowest seniority number in CLT is high 13’s, so no one above that can do a MBE because they would be the most junior person.

"A pilot cannot exchange into a bid status where he or she will be the most junior pilot. Thus, a mutual exchange cannot result in a new, more junior pilot in either one of the two statuses involved in the exchange". It shows in red with an * if you are too junior to hold a position and MBE will be disregarded. 13776 is junior MBE transfer and 13778 is most junior in status on APA site it looks like (as of End of January). Now 13778 is gone for Feb and beyond. If 13776 truly was the bottom it shouldn't have been allowed. Maybe it went through while 13778 was still showing junior pilot so that guy barely snuck in before it was too late? Lucky he made it just in time I guess. He couldn't do it now. MBE works great if you can hold the spot. More people should use it. |

Folks,
Request if anyone has an idea how long to get Charlotte? My seniority is low...mid 14K. I’d take educated guesses, crystal ball looks, or even shots through the dark. Thank you in advance. |

There are several roads to Charlotte:
You got the 77 for top to bottom, the 85 for left to right, and the 485 that goes loopity loop. :D |
