Any word on which gates we'll be operating from (A vs. D)?

More than likely. Or padding DEN knowing most LAS bidders will come out of there.

Anyone need a new kidney?

I'll throw in a dollar as well! It's my last dollar!
I know right? It gets old hearing that you'll get mco in no time when it's now a 9 month wait.

ON THE BRIGHT SIDE: I might be off first year pay by the time I get MCO!

BOOM!

They're still telling guys 3-4 moths to hold MCO as of last week. Maybe they mean if you've been here 6 months it'll be 3-4 moths to hold MCO haha

Assuming the rumored Las Vegas base is true, I wonder how much it'll shake up the seniority list?

Where will all the Vegas captains come from? What percentage of Denver captains will bid Vegas? How about Chicago? I would guess not too many from Orlando, but I'm sure a few. Will Vegas get a few senior Denver FOs to finally bid upgrade, assuming they can hold a line?

I think the Vegas base will cause a larger shake up of the list than the opening of Chicago or Orlando.

What do you think?

Where will all the Vegas captains come from? Mostly DEN and ORDWhat percentage of Denver captains will bid Vegas? 5%. How about Chicago? 10% I would guess not too many from Orlando, but I'm sure a few.(3% maybe) Will Vegas get a few senior Denver FOs to finally bid upgrade, assuming they can hold a line? I think most super senior FOs in Denver are content until they are able to hold a senior CA line in DEN.

I think the Vegas base will cause a larger shake up of the list than the opening of Chicago or Orlando. More than ORD, maybe equal to or slightly greater than MCO.

What do you think?
So by my rough estimations that is 15 from DEN, 10 from ORD, and 3-4 from MCO.

As I'm often told, I don't know much, but I believe the frequency/distance/more commuter friendly weather in LAS will be hard for some Denver resident ORD CAs to ignore considering. Of course how the even more dystopic LAS schedules will impact such a decision, of course, but again commuting to LAS from DEN seems far more appealing than DEN to ORD. Imho, of course.

So how far in advance is the company required to give when opening a new domicile ? I couldn't find it in the CBA - spent and hour looking for it. I've heard 60 days or 90'days from different people.

Just messing around but it's a fun guess.
Replace Delta with United.
