I wasn't expecting to get the 900 after I was awarded 200 on the initial. Lesson learned. Because of that, I just got a few more months of LGA instead of being home in ATL. I'd back out of this into my initial award if I could, for sure.
I laugh at how this all works (not really) because a guy in my class, who is younger, got the 900, then bid to 200 ATL and is going to differences in Oct, while I'll be LGA until Feb with my 900 differences. oops

I also have a late class date to go to my prefered position. I understand that they have to move people when it makes sense. I just wish they would have been a little more straightforward on the notice. They didn't mention the removal of seat locks, I am happy they released them since it has allowed me back into the 900. The part that's annoying is they said that classes would extend till December 11th so I made the assumption based on my seniority I would have an early December class and have Christmas off this year. I bid what I wanted not what I thought I could hold and it has worked out for me I just wish I didn't have to wait till 2018 for class.

Yea that's kind of a raw deal but, differences aren't a large training footprint, you'd be done with sim before Christmas most likely. There is no guarantee of having Christmas off if you are doing IOE. There are now several LCP's that have fallen back on reserve or are barely holding lines and are likely to be stuck working Christmas... which means IOE will be happening on Christmas. The bigger thing is this likely means that the next vacancy won't be coming until January now. They can't have classes for the next one start before all of the classes in this vacancy have started.

Perhaps a FO only vacancy to have slots for new hires. How would a realignment vacancy work and could that be next?

This last one barely covers SSP CA attrition. Doesn't even begin to cover aircraft growth. There's gonna be another one with Captain slots this year, the bottle neck is just going to be the training department is going to be busy with differences training by releasing all these seat locks.
