It doesn't seem like they did a very good job at averting a huge training footprint.

That was a given with the merger based on the demographics of where pilots lived. It will be a few more years before it settles out.

That's how it looked to me when I was deciding to bid NYC 7er. Not many EWR trips at all.

No no. Johnson. There are PLENTY of EWR trips and NYC is a horrible place to go. Only the VERY junior should EVER attempt it. Right? :rolleyes: :D

I saw you on there. Wondering the same thing myself :D

Looks like quite a few behind you though. If you can hold a line, then maybe not such a bad deal. If I get bumped into commuting on the next bid, I may seriously consider NYC for the relative seniority bump.
