Gahhh.... Well, it's about as expected. Time to figure out where I want to go on a displacement. Those 40 ATL767Bs are senior dudes.

....or so it would be in an ideal world!:rolleyes:

Regardless the west coast bases are getting an swap of 20 F/O's for 20 CA's!

That's also assuming the SEA upgrades will be filled by West coast guys. I ran into a guy who was a SEA 7er A who lived in PA. Said his schedules were better in SEA.

So I'm assuming there will be another AE in a few months to staff for 717 arrivals? glad to see some upgrades in there. Just curious how this might effect any possible hiring in 2013

The next bid will be in early 2013- that will include the 717s an hopefully will have some hiring.

Haha, I'd be in the top 5 on it... as opposed to the bottom 5 on its seester "north" plane category in ATL. What a strange distribution of seniority.

hey all...

so I got a FRA white slip out of JFK for tomorrow. Was just notified that the first leg has been cancelled due to the effects from the hurricane. Does anyone know what this means for me for the rest of the time I'm supposed to be on the trip? Will I essentially be "on call" for the duration? Also just got a call saying my schedule has been "relocked" - any idea what this means?

Edit - I just checked my sched, and the white slip has been 23K'd. I'm not sure what this means.

Thanks everyone.
