This is not quite correct. For the AE Tool, it is displaying your seniority compared to those pilots that were on the actual bid award for a given category. It uses your system seniority # and compares it to the number of each pilot as it loops through the Composite Report.
We have gone back and forth about whether to use the monthly category lists or the seniority list, as there is sometimes a discrepancy between the two sources. My best guess is this is due to pilots entering/exiting the lists on a continuous basis. Because of this discrepancy, the most accurate result is to compare a pilot's seniority # to that of other pilots on the actual PBS run.
The Seniority Tool uses a different source and simply tallies up the data from the most recent system seniority list. The list in use is published at the top of the page.
Hope that explanation helps.

The AE Tool should be a little more accurate as it's actually counting pilots that were in the category at the time PBS did it's thing.

Go to www.myidtravel.com/myidlisting
Then scroll to Delta Air Lines in the scroll box.
Enter the Delta username and password. I won't post those here, but I'm sure a search could get you those details.
From there, you click on 6-9 containers and input 69 different lines to get yourself listed on AA or SWA (I don't know if others use this site, as well) for your commute. 10 minutes later, you're listed! So easy! (Unless you have 15 minutes to catch a flight and the gate agent closes out before you can get in the system.)
