Even if you place MEM 757 as your first choice you aren't seat locked. There's nothing to downbid or lateral to.

Lateral movement means FO to FO (any airplane) or FO75 to FO75 (just different domicile)?

Essentially same pay scale. So WB to WB is, NB to WB is not. FO to Capt is not.

Thx.
Historically there’s been a long lag between system bids and actually training in a new type. That gap might start shrinking soon.

What Viper said.
Assuming the aotc wasn’t running at full capacity under the old system.
