Carlson and ALPA email says there will be snapshots. They don’t say when or how many.

Snapshots are worthless when you have 3000 pilots making selections that can change with the click of a button... the subsequent displacements in Dec will be the real deal.

With the closing of the various BESs, it’s inevitable there will be overstaffing. The company’s mitigation strategy perhaps might morph into a cyclical problem until demand returns. Completely reopening the 756 may be an option to exploit that capability while attempting to optimize pilot utility. These rough times make it difficult to strike an optimal balance!

Very true, but in this “do over” process I’d like to have an idea if I’d be 2999 out of 3000 going to the 787. Slight exaggeration, but even PC quipped that DEN 756 would get 3000 pilots.

If you select SFO 787 and it was shown as an option for you, you will get it. But you could still be displaced in the future.
First snapshot is out and my employee number isn’t showing up anywhere on the list, even though I got email confirmation of my 787 selection. Looks like 787 FO goes into the 8000s seniority then the document ends. This stuff is plain weird.

You really think it’s correct that nobody junior to 8000 bid SFO 787? I triple checked, I didn’t make the list. Not sure where this is laid out that we are guaranteed whichever option we select like you all unanimously state.

Then stop asking for help?

Seriously. It's in both the documentation from the company and ALPA for you to read yourself.

On a side note, it does appear that the list is either incomplete or corrupted. That does not mean that the info is wrong.

I’m showing the most junior pilot awarded SFO 787 is about 12,472

Looks like they fixed the file and added pages 15 and 16 which are all 787FO. Thx
