Second 14-Day Window
Anyone else not understand the options available to them when you find your employee # in the 900 ish page pdf that’s linked in the second 14 day CCS message that was sent to those eligible to rebid a different airframe? I was displaced from 756 to 320 and my 3 options are CLE737, DEN 756, and SFO 787.

However, if you pick one you WILL get it so that's why there is no percentage bidding.

And if you get it (787), unless you’re mid tier seniority range and above I wouldn’t count on ever going to training before the clean up displacements come.

Yup, and that could actually be a "bump game" strategy considering that on any subsequent displacement one can bump to whatever category one can hold and not just the choices on this do over.

Why CLE, DEN, and SFO? It doesn’t make sense to me why it’s base specific when DEN 756 is more senior than EWR 756. You said if I pick one I will get it. So based off the info I gave you, I have a 100% chance of getting SFO 787 if I select it?

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.

you can only choose a position that you could NOT have chosen during the displacements. If you had the ability to go elsewhere during the three displacements then they assume you are where you want to be.

100% you will get SFO 787. They cannot say no to you for those options they gave you but those are the only options you have.

No I couldn’t get Ewr 756 because I was displaced from that to Ewr 320. I’m in the June furlough cross hairs so it’s probably futile but it could improve furlough pay if I could hold WB pay. Just doesn’t seem realistic in this climate to get a pay raise so that’s why I’m so confused I think.

This could not be any simpler: if you participate and pick any of your specific choices you WILL get it. If you prefer your current category then don't participate.
As others have mentioned above, everybody's choices on the "do over" are different based how the previous displacements played out. And because of that, only a subset of pilots are even eligible for the "do over" anyway.
