ASA IAD/ORD Displacement
 

I am curious to see what happens with the United flying out of ORD/IAD. I am curious to see how many people want to go to ORD/IAD, and how many are going to go forcefully. Do you think there are going to be enough people that hate Atlanta that both bases will be senior enough that the guys on the bottom of the seniority list don't get sent up north?

Are you guys opening a IAD and ORD base? I thought it was only IAD?

Me too....this is the first I've heard about ORD???

As of right now, SH says as of the beginning of 2010, IAD will be the only base. ORD may come later, or maybe another city served by our Delta Connection service.

Displacements? Maybe a few but when people see the 30 most junior captains and the guy who is 30 from the bottom holding the number one line in IAD, domicile bids will change. My guess is a few senior guys, a bunch of the 6-8 year guys and few from the bottom. As for the right seat, well, who cares!

Um, me and the 50 others at the bottom of the list....

SilverandSore must be in our current ALPA Leadership.

if you were a lions fan you would be ****ed at the world also

I agree with SilverandSore's prediction. IAD will be a few senior pilots in both seats (the "Anywhere But Atlanta" crowd), a bunch of senior FOs chasing upgrade, then a bunch of junior FOs who got displaced.

I doubt there will be an ORD base, but if there is, I'm all over it. IAD will be mostly junior, but ORD will go way senior. We have lots of pilots from the upper Midwest who will want to quit commuting (for a while).

Ohh, did I hurt some feelings? The same logic applies to the right seat, there, do you feel better?
