I'm sure they will blame the wx and their A14 bonuses will keep on flowing.

Any way to tell what the junior line holder in each base is? Trying to see what base ( FO ) is the quickest to hold a line.

For my early 2016 class, it was ACY by far. I was higher in seniority in DTW than my DFW classmates, but DFW held a line sooner cause more guys bid reserve that DTW,, so you can't just go by absolute base seniorty. I was here a full year before being GUARANTEED a line in DFW. Best to check with your classmates..

In flica, click on the "awards" tab on the bottem left side of your screen. There, you can go base by base and seat by seat and see everyones awards.

Around 9 months to bid off reserve and into a relief line in DFW.

Seems high but with 400+ departures a day prolly by a huge deal unless it became a daily thing.

It looks like at least 12 of those flights are turns. (6 turns). Which means at least six airplanes out of position. Wonder if weather last night had anything to do with it?

With all of the open time out there for today, it should have been more than 12 cancellations. I bet the airport clinics were overflowing with our pilots choking on all that gravy.

Looks like 16 today. But don't you worry, the "hat wearing captain" is available in ORD. Good thing is he's the only one on the standing available list!
