There is nothing preventing them from moving on this excess. They can bid just like anyone else. The company is just not flushing people out of those seats. A 27FM with enough seniority can bid to another seat if he so desires.

Wait. They learned their lesson. 2nd Excess bid will allow for 72 and 75 F/O to be pushed out the bottom.

Since there's no vacancies (except on the 09-01 vacancy bid - to HKG) they can't move to anywhere their seniority will hold - they can only move to fill a vacancy (to HKG)
Maybe on 09-03 when/if MEM 27F/27S are excessed, THEN they can move - but those guys' only choice right now is to bid HKG vacancy.

All except for MEM 10C/F/S and SFS30C/F. I don't think those will get you anywhere.
And you still can't cause an excess in HKG 30C/F, so "only" 20/36 guys will get to go there, unless the company decides to add more.

The Q&A under the FCIF answers that somewhat. It does say that you can bid if your seat is in excess(or get excessed), but not otherwise. So the 10 guys who got 75 awards, can't partake either...
