Happy Bidding and don't forget to bid what you want as there will almost certainly be "unadvertised" (or secondary) vacancies.

So to summarize... forget about bidding sfo 777 if you are junior.

You are about to see 14 747 CAs and 14 747 FOs bid the 777 in SFO.

The good news is that it will cause backfills on the 747 CA side. FO side will shrink without backfill.

Wow. 40 EWR 320 F/Os is huuuge. There are only 70 guys in that seat now.
And the DCA 737 increase is pretty impressive too. 35/40 seats added to a pool of only 127/128.

New hire vacancies... not actual growth they're just place holders.
