Real question is, does it count as growth?

EWR was a new location for trips to start/end, SJU was a new location for trips to start/end. FLL is not a new location for trips to start/end. Adding equipment to a base does not make it new. At least in my interpretation

Apparently neither does the Union.

Reading the definitions of "Base", "Position", and "Status" in Article 2:

It's a plausible reading of the contract to say that what's happening is new Positions being added to an already existing Base.

Now that’s funny stuff. They are shrinking the other 2 220 bases to embark on the next adventure.

I get it. Doesn’t affect me anyway. Does not mean I have to agree with it, but I’m just a line Pilot. I don’t make those decisions.

If current FLL FO’s bid 220 CA this could end up being a really interesting bid for the company. We could become
very overstaffed in the CA seat on the 220 in BOS and JFK.

This bid is likely to create quite a few bases with discrepancies between CA/FO seats again. Something they just finally remedied by finishing the training from the displacement.

August annual (displacement) bid will be the cleanup for this mess. I guess by running the Supp first they can mitigate some of the displacements that would have to happen.

It was also noted the annual bid could contain additional openings. I believe the question was if you were awarded something in the supplemental could you then bid something different in the annual and it’s was clarified that you could.
