I mean, what kind of announcements do you make?

Yes of course you can bid around them. If you have the seniority. And you don't catch one on a reserve day. So basically not unless you've been here since God was a child.
"Humanitarian reasons"! Lololol. I would love to hear the stories of woe and teeth-gnashing if someone tried.
Maybe you're more cut out for the Peace Corps?

You’ll be flying sex offenders too. They also get deported. My last flight had someone who was convicted of incest wirh a minor. So don’t apply for omni, ati, atlas or any other acmi if you have moral objections. Fed ex probably flew something offensive too. I saw a pax with a MAGA hat on United last week also.

Usually a violent one or a drug offender(think large amounts).
when they're returned to their home country IF they were wanted there they'd go to jail if not they were free to go.
yes some were executed. Mostly the MS 13 guys.
