That statement needs a category qualifier. I was stuck with reserve on a WB once, now I'm bidding it by choice.

And a seniority qualifier, and a category-staffing qualifier...

Yes in the ATL 765 for APR, reserve was all taken by the top 30% of FO's.......lines for everyone below wether they wanted one or not!

I've posted it before. In fact just a few postings back.

For you: NYC 7ERB.
<70 %

Our senior folks don't bid reserve unlike that 765 crowd.

It's pretty apparent flying was pulled, coupled with the NQAT and SIC the ACTUAL seniority one has fluctuates month to month to month in this category.

My guess is they add flying back now that the bids are done and crank on the reserves they artificially created. Just a theory.
