Aren't they supposed to convert folks (MD) in inverse seniority?

In category. Yes.

That was my point. Look how many European destinations we have dropped because pax can connect through AMS or CDG. This seems like a play to allow the same thing in SA.

Were the destinations dropped because of the ability to connect people or because they were unprofitable in the current Europe economic collapse. Several of those destinations we have flown in the past and dropped before when we did not have the connection option. Berlin is a excellent example.
The other issue is a lack of airframes this winter with the lie flat mods.

Quick question (s):

If I am going into training Jan 1 and converting in Feb, do I need/want to bid?
or to bid for vacation?

What's the difference between the 22D2 and 22D3 report? I guess I'm not understanding Pilot Requirements vs Pilot Staffing.

Also, without a good bit of extraneous math, how do you figure out how many numbers up or down you've moved in category?

Thanks

GO look at the PWA sections 22.D.3 and 22.D.2. These are the literally definitions of what these two staffing reports are.

I would bid for your vacation. As soon as I get a new jet, I put in my requests for vacation. The projected conversion dates are just that, projected, and they can change. One day or two in your case may make a difference.

Also bid for a line while in training. We no longer will have blank lines, and if you do not bid, you may get thrown on a reserve line.
