Management knows they don't need them. They will soon close 76T Den, and since all the DEN 76T FOs can hold DEN 737 Capt, it will resemble a sinking ship with rats hanging on to the masts. Add in some more A320 bumps and you have the perfect seniority storm. Denver is the new Seattle. You'll see displacements....not vacancies. And that doesn't even consider a possible TK relocation!!! Can you imagine the carnage of TK guys coming back to their DEN line bids? That would just ice the cake.

So, as a new-hire (737 EWR) trying to get to SFO, how likely is it that they will fill unadvertised vacancies after this bid? There were 16 un-filled 737 SFO in last vacancy bid, and I'm guessing this could create a couple more?
Is there hope for it to happen even if it's not officially in the bid?

Based on the number of bids out on the West Coast on this vacancy I would suspect that it is very likely they will be backfilling losses from the 737. Not sure what your seniority stance is relative to others that are trying to get West, but this bid should create a good deal of movement. Remember now that you are on the line and can bid, they can't have an "unfilled" bid to SFO 737 FO without you first getting the bid (as long as you bid for it)

Nothing. Like zero so this bid is head scratcher. Manila is an Internet legend based on Filipino news article. Also talk of Auckland, but appears company is content with good old Star Alliance coverage. Only thing official is new Sparkies in Bubbaland going S America. After 25 there is a significant pause in deliveries.

When company announced S America w/Sparkie it stated that IAH flying would cover all new deliveries this year. Not sure how we can do anything more West Coast until post 25 deliveries start.
