Whoa Nelly!
Read ALPA section 45 on SLI. It is specifically intended to not favor one group vs the other. I think the SLI will be much closer to relative seniority than DOH
Read the Alaska VA ISL decision he posted. Read the positions of 3 professional arbitrators on how all 3 criteria were weighed. DOH will never happen under an ALPA merger, neither will straight Rel Seniority. Because either one ignores the other 2 criteria. Its a good read, worth the 20 minutes of time.

Under straight DOH, I’d lose 17.2% while the blue pilots ahead of me gain north of 12%…. And, fwiw, I never applied to JetBlue back in the day cause they are an east coast airline, and I already paid my dues in Boston & New York, thanks.

just skimmed through it. One positive note I took away, is that B6 and NK have a much much closer seniority list than VX and Alaska did. And our CBA’s are probably closer too. I would think an arbitrator would not favor DOH in our situation as much as they did in Alaska’s. Maybe 60% relative and 40% DOH.

why does DOH matter. If he’s same percentage. Nothings changed.

Both JB and NK have the same amount of future orders, obviously since NK is smaller theirs is bigger percentage growth....however....precedence per the VA/AS SLI below is they don't really look at future orders.

Unlike future fleet projections which may be too high, too low, or dead on, the size of the fleet on the snapshot date is ascertainable and definite. Using a static fleet analysis as of the snapshot date allows the Board to determine the impact of various formulas for merging the lists without reliance on speculative merger driven fleet size assumptions

2-3 years on the 190 and 3.5-6 years on the 320. That’s held fairly steady, the exception being the LGB->LAX displacement bid during covid. But, through all the recent bids it’s mostly back there. Junior 190 CA awarded is Nov 2019 hire. He got awarded it back in august. Most junior awarded 320 CA is July 2017. Their training is I think in September or October.

Last bid CA awarded to 8/17 and 5/19 hires (Bus and 190), not sure about 220. Has varied over the years but in recent times relatively close to those numbers.
