Is there hope for it to happen even if it's not officially in the bid?
I would say the probability is VERY high. Just keep your bid in for what you really want, and I'm almost certain you'll be there within a year at the latest and more likely within the next one or two bids.

Of course, that's just a guess on my part and not supported by any facts other than the current trends.

Agreed. It's entirely possible that you could get awarded SFO on 15-10V.

Griego, just to make sure you're aware of this. Let's say you get awarded a lateral to SFO on this bid. It could take 6 months after the bid before you are actually moved from EWR to SFO so don't think it will happen instantaneously.

Or it could happen sooner, they activated me 2 months early to IAH last year!

If you are awarded a lateral and are waiting to move, an email to Manpower Planning explaining your situation might help IF you are next in seniority to move. I was in this situation where several of us had been awarded a base to base, same equipment, lateral. I was next to go AND I would not have been placed senior to anyone in the gaining base, so no seniority was abrogated at either end. It was simply a matter of someone moving the next piece on the board. I asked and was moved the next month.

Lets get those rumors out in the open about the new routes.

as far as delivery dates go, the 787 blog info that a "connected" guy keeps up to date shows:


#19 manufactured in Everett due to be delivered on 07/23/15
#20 manufactured in Everett due to be delivered on 08/21/15
#21 manufactured in Everett due to be delivered on 09/15/15
#22 manufactured in Everett due to be delivered on 09/15/15 (separate assembly line from number 21)
#23 manufactured in Charleston due to be delivered on 10/23/15
#24 manufactured in Charleston due to be delivered on 11/13/15
#25 manufactured in Charleston due to be delivered on 11/20/15

then
#26 on Jan 22, 2016
#27 on Feb 15, 2016
#28 on Feb 25,2016

The guy keeps the site updated every week or so:

This is what I was curious about. I wasn't sure if they awarded vacancies which do not appear in the initial bid.

Thanks all, for the input.

Boeing is ahead of this schedule. The 6/16 delivery was delivered already and that was #18. It arrived yesterday in DEN flown in from Charleston almost 3 weeks early.

We could get #25 as early as 11/1/2015 if they stay ahead of schedule.

Ah trust me those of us that have experienced South Carolina Boeing products have ZERO desire to see them shoot out ahead of schedule...
