You do realize that no LUAL pilots will get to bid or bump into the 737 until the JCBA and SLI is behind us. You assume that the language in the contract regarding the subject will be the same as it is for you guys now. Are your bumping rights different than the UAL contract has? Keep in mind that when they move flying around more in the post JCBA days there will be many surpluses and bumps. This will be even more appearant when the day comes and the 400s get parked for good( probably within 5 years).

Hey CAL guys, Didn't a practice bid come and go this last week. Correct me if I'm wrong but could you not tell how many unfilled vacancies(ish) there were? And wouldn't that be the projected furlough/street hiring numbers?

Mystery to me on that calculation...any theories on how Many actual new hires?
Either way it's interesting theyve gone darn near all the way through the UAL list to finish the last bid. Interesting times.

However if you ask some 243 vacancies does not mean 243 new hires. Yet to find anyone who can explain this logic but quite a few saying this bid will result in only 40-100 actual new hires and the rest is just moving people around

I didn't see any "reductions" of bases in the bid?
Anyhow, might see you this Fall (ish).

Aug 2005 hires were able to hold CA-B737/EWR in 2008. That only lasted till they furloughed the 143.
The current snap-shot (1 of 2) has the 8-Ball back to Aug 2005.....This time in GUM. Snap-shot 2 of 2 comes out tomorrow with the final publish on the 15th of this month.
Should be interesting.
