Recycle Queen? Bummer. Surprised some hard charging non scab Check Airmen type didn't grab the return trip.

Looks like both Captains are Special, one from CAL and one from UAL. Birds of a feather fly together. ALPA Unity? Sure.

That's what blows about the SIN flight. Usually you only get 1 SCAB now you have 2 because of the 2 CA restriction.

As a Bunkie I can usually avoid the SCAB for 13-14 hrs.

There has to be a good story behind this?

We will start seeing junior 787 captains with the 400FO bumps coming.

There are about 80 747 FOs in SFO are senior to the bottom 787 Captain in SFO, so a lot of them will bid into that seat. They are more junior than what the normal seniority of that seat should be because of the fence and the massive bids to fill the seats up prior to the fence coming down.
