1. If assigned US, are you blocked from bidding AA side of the house (and vice/versa) until the SLI is complete and all timelines for fences, etc. are complete?

2. Can the remaining Eagle flows be assigned to US side or are the contracted AA metal/bases?

Good luck to all who interviewed this week!

1. I bet you will be. Already, new hires on the US side are sent East or (as of late) West. Once on the respective side, there is no movement between the two. There's no mechanism in place to do so. So, I can only imagine the same would be true for the AA side as well.

2. No idea.

Heard the same thing. The A321 (non -T) will start doing LAX-DFW-MIA routes. I would assume taking over for the 757 as they are being parked.

In next month's bid package, "The new Airbus A321H was added on August 1st operating LAX-MIA-LAX. One additional A321H is added on 22 August on two LAX-DFW turns." Guessing this could probably be confirmed if you looked at flights between these cities after those dates.

No vacancies for A319/321 in MIA yet. The Aug 31 vacancy run just closed Thurs July 10.
This vacancy run did have Advanced Vacancy for 787 DFW I think it was 15 787 CA's and 30 FO's for 787.

There were Zero vacancies for MIA for Aug 31. This doesn't mean anything as these are KNOWN vacancies.

The 1998's are just making CA now although a small handful had been before.
There were 9 737D CA's for LGA.

I've said this many times before I like the monthly vacancy run.

That wouldn't be too bad. I live right at MECHL intersection. I was looking forward to 75/76.
