FWIW, to get this thread back on topic, and with regards to the 2022 system bid.... I just left 320 FO with around 70% seniority to go to 190 CA.
I bid it at 90% or above and should be around 80% according to PVBM.
I live within SCL distance, was really happy on the Bus, but seemed to me i could make more money, be the CA, have weekends off, etc by rolling the dice on the 190.

Hey guys, bit of an old thread but curious what you guys think now that the 190s are on their way out and the whole Spirit deal. For those that have been on a fleet on its way out before, any thoughts on how trips/QOL will change as the fleet gets smaller and smaller? Would it be harder to stay a line holder, or do you think the more senior guys will bail soon for the 220 now that it’s more established (or bus, for that matter).
Trying to gather an idea of what life might be like as a 190 CA (probably junior line holder) over the next few years if I make the move.

Realizing the bid is coming out in a hour or so and I might be immediately wrong….
I think we will see some pretty decent negative numbers in BOS and JFK on top of the MCO closure.
Not displacements but simply no or little backfill into those categories.
CA is about to become more senior overall I’m afraid.

and to clarify that is only 190 numbers, 220/320 will have a decent number of vacancies.

Think someone with a year seniority on the 190 will be able to jump off to the bus? Just curious now since you think there will be some negative numbers and no backfilling.
