Wasn't the last reduced bidding window right before some new planes were announced? Maybe the rumors of the Air Mekong planes joining the fleet are true, or maybe something else is going on. Settle down people. No pitch forks required.

keep in mind that the last position notice and its associated effective date didnt hold up. I was awarded a position back in november which had a effective date of this spring. I ended up having training in december and I'm online now in the new position....
just saying.

Thanks. I actually deferred this class. Circumstances have changed in my life and can't justify the lateral move at this time and on the relatively short notice.

10 captains almost doesn't seem worth it... Glad it's happening but more please

And for Pete sake, why would they announce a new base the day after a position notice??? Why not wait an extra day and include the new base on the notice?

I wouldn't be surprised to see more than 10 upgrades.

Maybe that was the "Unforseen circumstances" . A chance to have no arguement, because it was their last day.

Remember, seniority is everything in this game.

Little birdie told me our MEC will also be giving them relief on the ready reserve grievance. Their backs must hurt from all the bending over they do.
