Does anyone know if this will be the last "mega" bid for the year? I haven't read anything on how many of these to expect before they shut off the faucet until next fall. I'm assuming they will do one or two smaller clean ups but wasn't sure if they would do another big one.

I would guess once the MAX gets cleared for T/O, we’ll see a good sized bid.

If trade war intensifies, Boeing implodes, and ww3 breaks out, expect furlough.
Sorry, that wasn't helpful, but probably fairly accurate. I don't think the company has said this yet, but outside of retirement churn, my guess is capt seats won't grow until max is resolved, and WB growth has had its big expansion with anything beyond the current status quo being dependent on an improving foreign affairs environment. Conditions are primed to punish any big bites at further expansion imo.

Awesome, thanks! That's exactly what I was looking for. Couldn't find it anywhere in print and was wondering if anyone had heard or read anything. Last year they tipped us off as to how many big ones they were gonna run during fall/winter. Not so much this year. Most likely based on lack of timeline for the MAX.

For 2020 schedule new aircraft are:
2 777’s (coming early 2020)
15 787’s (spread throughout the year but mostly fall or earlier)
And 28 Max’s (in addition to the 16 that were supposed to be delivered by the end of this year). But who knows when those were actually be able to fly.

As others have said training tends to slow down over the summer, but also look at the aircraft delivery schedule. No sense training pilots for aircraft that haven't shown up yet.

How do the snapshots process seat locks?
I see quite a few instances of new (sub 2 year) 737 CA lateraling to the 320 or vice versa and new 777 FOs with 787 bids. Does that mean those names will disappear for the final, thus making things more junior or do they incur a cumulative freeze after the new training?

Edited - I just looked at the snapshot. The junior SFO 787 folks many were awarded the 777 last month and haven't even been scheduled for training yet therefore 8-D-1-c applies.
