The swapa vacancy projection shows all displaced FO’s getting back to their desired domicile with the exception of a handful of guys looking to bid into Dallas.
New hires will get Oak, Lax, Las, and one or two will sneak into Denver. Mdw is only 20 numbers senior to Denver. Bwi is 80 numbers senior to Mdw. Said another way, it takes 120 new hires below you to hold Denver, 140 to hold Mdw, and 220 to reach Bwi. January and February have small class sizes so figure 3-4 months minimum before a new hire can hold east of the Mississippi, at least until the June vacancy will will probably lower those times by a month (150+ new hires on that bid).
Also, it looks like we will have a new junior Captain in Oakland.

I’d be surprised if any more are forced elsewhere.
