I was going to ask, if you have been waiting on ITU from bid 20-01, and haven’t gone to training yet due to them denying slots for “new hire” requirements. Do they have to train you before any of the “new” slots for this bid?
I have been waiting on 76FO training and have been denied every month. For JAN22 they finally are sending some transfers to ITU, but with new unfilled slots from this bid can they go back to denying and training new hires?

1. Except for pilots who are not eligible to participate in a monthly training bid (or BTA bid), System Bids shall be trained (e.g., training slot awards/assignments, denials, BTA awards/assignments) to each crew position’s conclusion, prior to commencing any training in such crew position based upon a subsequent System Bid. Training Bids for two or more separate System Bids may run concurrent for one bid period, as training for the crew position from one System Bid concludes, and the training for the same crew position from another System Bid commences.
This lead me to believe that 20-02 for a crew position must be completed before starting training for a crew position in System Bid 21-01. However, this wouldn't be the first time that I think something in the contract is clear only to find out the company and union look at it differently. The System Bid FCIF did state "Pilots holding First Officer awards requiring ITU training, most likely, will not attend class until late 2022, at the earliest, as we continue to train new hires", so I'm not sure if that is referring to only 21-01, or also 20-02.

Lets all take a step back. This is nothing more than the company seeing the shortfall and baiting us. Hmm, contracted ended. 700 plus WB capt slots? Thats never happened. The company knows whats coming. And odd, bid wasn't posted on a Fri at 5pm Mem time like its been done for 20yrs? IF Anyone doesn't see this as negotiation tactic, you a fool .
