Brute force - looking at the system seniority list when it comes out at the beginning of each month. I'm sure someone more tech savvy has a better method using the electronic bid packs / bid lists.

There are a LOT of FOs who stayed in the seat to stay in Denver. Except for the outliers, the senior FOs in DEN go back to 04-06.

Yes we do. A lot of people have bypassed. So you two to three year people will get bumped down for a while when others upgrade out of Denver.

Hypothetically speaking - if LAS were to open - do you think it would draw out a sizable number of the by-passers? Is it an easier commute than ORD? Does 30 minutes closer, and no winter to deal with translate to easier commute?

LAS is a much easier commute. Shorter flight, less weather issues, more flights and less competition for the jump seat. If frontier opens LAS, I'm pretty confident it'll go way more senior than ORD and MCO. Plus, guys that live on the west coast and want to live on the west coast will surely take LAS.

IF frontier opens LAS, it'll really shake up the seniority list

As of now, F9 has twice as many flights to LAS than ORD.

Then it'll be two bases in common with Spirit.

Um, merger?

Someone asked, so I counted. 123 FOs with a 2008 or earlier DOH have by passed upgrade so far. 113 of which are DEN based. There are also a handful of 2011 hires that have bypassed.
