No I’m still riding good seniority and intl trips on LAX ER. Just going back and forth on my next move over the next 6 months either SLC320A or LAX350B… have some time to consider

Does the AE influence what new hires have as options? My class is in February so just wondering what I can expect.

Yes, new hires can only get what went unbid on the previous AE, and every AE resets those new hire slots.

So early Feb you probably get the leftovers from the Jan AE, late Feb probably get a fresher batch of spots from the AE that’ll probably let out early Feb.

The AE memo mentions LAX 350 B vacancies are staffing for the summer. In six months, expect only contingent vacancies as senior FOs upgrade. IMHO, now is your best shot in the next 9 months. You can always pull the first time Captain card if you go 320A
