I don’t know why the jealous old timers or the youngsters who choose to upgrade, think it’s such a great deal. These young captains are going to be working weekends flying redeyes or on reserve for 10 years. I’m mid seniority in the company and I keep holding off on the upgrade until I’d have a reasonable quality of life.

With that user name are you retired mil with pension currently? Some of us hit (got hit by more accurately) the lost decade or have reason to make hay while the sun shines with retirement savings or other life costs. I’m envious of the pilots who bid min schedule and drop what they can but that ain’t everybody.

Here here……..I’m sure I am not only airline pilot…..but I was the only ATP certificate holder, current to boot (EMB 145) to also work at the particular Papa John’s franchise I did……… I Can’t be the only one but I was the archetype of Pilots carry less than $10 cash……Iwas doing at both jobs ….JACKPOT!!

As expected, the snapshot has gone more senior. Most junior NBCA is a 139xx number, which is a 2022 hire I believe. Approx 75 pct system seniority...

A lot of FOMO on this bid. The next few should settle things down a bit.
