Can someone explain to me how some 3000+ seniority # guys got a DFW CA spot in the last bid even though there are 45 or more on the standing bid list with 2000 numbers? (some have freezes but not many)
How big is Dallas supposed to get?

Maybe those that had DFW got awarded there first or second choice... thats a very dynamic thing to figure out... as far as size 120~ i heard (each seat).

Not really sure, could be a total time limitation? I was puzzled about that as well. So as of now the junior captain in DFW is two years seniority, if that. Subject to change of course. I have heard 100 to 120 crews when it is all said and done.

Thanks!

Perfect, I will be the plug when my number comes around but I can live with that.

Right but if they'd gotten their preference, they'd disappear from the standing bid list. So I'm kinda perplexed but who knows. Looks like most ERJ FOs are being bypassed for transition-upgrade, though ironically the junior DFW CA slots went to formerly erj fos.
