That's not a rumor. It actually happened exactly as you state. Luckily for him, since he bid F/O to F/O, he was able to bid E190 Captain on the next bid since you're allowed to upgrade off of a seatlock, as long as you're not on a downgrade (Capt to F/O) seatlock. It could have been much worse. The company will absolutely hold you to your bid, so be careful what you bid for.

Lol! Yeah, it was so nice to be over the hill, ie past 30, and get called a baby. Actually that was a while ago, I guess I was cresting the hill. Sometimes I forget how long we've been fighting. Looking forward to it being over, one way or the other.

30? Heck, try 40. Yeah, agree with you on the being over part.

The great fear of 3rd listers is that this SLI will be drawn out over 7 years with lawsuits. Fingers crossed.

If it was drawn out over 7 years, most 3rd listers would be able to hold group 2 captain on the east. Not the end if the world.

Keeping the east and west seperate would greatly benefit the third list.

Keeping NOBODY separate and finally integrating our entire airline in to ONE unified group would greatly benefit EVERYBODY over the longer term. Wanting something bad for others for the benefit of yourself is the antithesis of unionism.

I want one unified airline with happy customers, making obscene profits, with the best pay and work rules in the business. And hot flight attendants.

Now is that too much to ask?? :D
