So if there are both displacements and openings ..... who gets into the openings first? (Besides seniority) Does a displaced guy get first shot at an opening before anyone else evan if they are junior?? I guess I am asking after the displacement dominoes start to fall where in the pecking order is a guy who is just trying to bid to a new base??

Seniority rules, but my understanding is the displacements are run first. You can't advance into an opening that does not exist. You can displace and make an opening by forcing someone junior to you out.
If you are trying to bid a new base that you think you'll want to stay at, you might want to bid the following:
Advanced Entitlement to Base/Equipment/Seat
Voluntary Displacement to Base/Equipment/Seat
If you are not sure you want to stay there, then bid a Mandatory Displacement to Base/Equipment/Seat to avoid getting locked.

I am hoping there is not a reduction in need even if there are capacity cuts coming.

ATL767

ATL7ER
CVG7ER
possibly NYC7ER...
Vacancies in the 777, fluf, and mad doggy dog.
One more checklist and I'm going to post all the Pinnacle bold face checklists we had when I first got hired... 27!
