They’re just double checking that you’ll be a good fit. Something like 95% of people make it through the captain’s review board. Took me about a month because my previous employers took forever to send over the PRIA. Call every Friday and ask.

Yes, there is a 2 year equipment lock. NCE can bid different bases, but OCC can’t bid anything else. I’m sure the company was having trouble actually getting OCCs to stay since a displacement allows bidding for other aircraft. New hire DECs are officially “bidding” the first day for that status, so they will be locked for 2 years (or until displaced once the CRJs leave).

I know this has been said before, but I really hope that the union addresses how RAPs are not assigned until 5p. It kills me that we have to leave on a day off to get to base in the off chance that we get RAP1, S1, or an early start sequence.
I have no problem starting early on day 1, but hate how just as likely as an early start; we could get a commutable late start sequence and not have to leave a day early. I would love to bid for my RAP for the whole month during the bidding window.
I have reached out to my reps, but I hope posting here could get some traction and more people asking showing this is important to the pilot group.
