Vacancy 26-05
 

Anyone care to place bets (start the rumors early) before it presumably opens tomorrow?

EWR/DCA 777 CA/FO ??
ORD/LAX/SFO 787 CA/FO ??
IAH/DCA 320 CA ??

it will take 2 days before the MCO fan club takes over.

MCO 737 CA and FO. At least 10 in each seat.

jk jk jk probably heavy if not all airbus CA slots in DEN and IAH. WBFO will continue to be coastal bases.

Bid is open. I haven't looked at it yet to see how it stacks up.

Weird that we would have a bid since the derps told us last bid was the last one until Fall 2026 and that we were "fully staffed" for summer 2026, but here we are still having vacancy bids.

Good luck looking. It's open but they haven't posted any of the documents for it lol.

69 DEN 320 CA
27 IAH 320 CA
40 EWR 737 FO
20 LAX 737 FO
40 SFO 737 FO
25 DEN 320 FO
30 EWR 320 FO
30 SFO 320 FO

Boo.

Well, we are getting 787s in theory... but none on this vacancy!!!!

Only DEN and IAH 320 CA...

No new WBCA this month, No WBFO!!!

They said January in one of the CRU for WB bids. Also heard we might have some issues with the Polaris suite seats getting installed so they might hold those planes in CHS but its not confirmed. We have 3 787s on the ramp in 787 and another on the production line.

There could be Guppy captains awarded as backfills. SFO, LAX, EWR, LAS, DCA and GUM all have MIN at current staffing, so every guppy captain that bids Airbus will get backfilled in those bases. But without WB on this bid there isn't going to be as many backfills like the last one. 96 Captain bids in one month is not anything to turn one's nose up for. There are other airlines that haven't had 96 Captain bids in the last year, and many are displacing Captains.
