What has been your experience with this situation?
I was awarded SFO with an activation date in March. I was notified by a CCS message in early December that I would be activated there in January (two months earlier than I expected). Hope this helps.

Interesting...I too was awarded a 1 March SFO lateral (from IAH, in the guppy), but when I spoke with a manpower rep, he indicated that I'd likely not have my awarded activated until sometime later. He attributed this to having too many 73 FO's leaving IAH and too little flying being available in SFO.
