In the past between snapshots, the vacancy screen appeared to be dynamic - changing every time someone put in a bid that would change the snapshot.

The first snapshot's now out.

737 EWR 49% DCA 45% SFO 31% LAX 46% IAH 78% ORD 76% DEN 71%
320 EWR 36% DCA 69% SFO 27% LAX 60% IAH 78% ORD 76% DEN 88%
777 . . SFO 99% . . .

12 hours later:
756 EWR 71% DCA 71% SFO 49% LAX 44% IAH 93% ORD 91% DEN 90%
737 EWR 48% DCA 40% SFO 31% LAX 48% IAH 73% ORD 70% DEN 65%
320 EWR 35% DCA 58% SFO 27% LAX 60% IAH 77% ORD 75% DEN 71%
777 . . SFO 93% . . .
787 . . SFO 96% . . .
737 CLE 98% GUM 76%

No earth shattering changes, except maybe the seat in CLE opening up. And ORD and IAH actually being more senior in every seat than DEN.

How does flying the 767-400 work? Separate bid category like Delta, or are all 756 pilots trained on it?

All 756 pilots go through two days of differences training specifically for the 767-400 after their sim checkride. So, yeah 756 guys are trained in it. Good luck actually flying it outside of OE though as a new hire.

Reserves fly it fairly regularly from what I’ve seen.
