Welcome Freddie! Another military guy. Retiring or Guard/Reserve? I might be looking at SFO eventually as well. Currently in Pittsburgh, relocating to Denver.

So I've heard that if you choose the 756 you're "seat locked" for 2 yrs. Does that mean locked into the 756 or locked into the 756 in your domicile? i.e. will you be able to "try" and move around after a year or so, for example EWR to SFO after a year.
Sorry if the question sounds ridiculous. I feel like I'm trying to learn another language figuring this stuff out. I know indoc explains a lot, but it seems like you're asked to make a choice on day two that can really effect you for awhile. I'm trying to show up as prepared as possible.
I wonder if Rosetta Stone has "Airline" as an option.

Getting used to airline jargon is like a 2nd language to me right now after spending 14.5 years in the military.
I want to know this answer also...

If you're awarded the 756, you can move to any base that has the 756 without worrying about the seat lock. That is called a lateral bid.
If you're on the 737 or 320, you can bid the 756 at any time after you get your award. The reason being is that the seat lock doesn't prevent you from bidding a higher pay banded aircraft. However, once you get on the 756, you cannot bid down to the 737 or 320 until you satisfy your seat lock.
