The 74 is the best fleet for only flying one trip per month. SDFZ has trips like that, but you have to be senior to hold them. SDFZ bidpack has a lot of domestic stuff that goes junior. I’m intentionally not including ANC MD11 in this since it’s being drawn down

Agreed, I suspect numbers up there won’t go down as fast as planned thanks to our spectacular planning for the 74 training pipeline

I would be roughly 63% on the 747 FO list. Overall I’m around 81% company seniority.

I cannot hold 2 trips per bid period (58 days), I could hold 4 trips per bid... barely.

What is the approximate hire date for most junior 74 CA? I missed it if it's in here somewhere.

A TON of very senior airbus and domestic guys/gals heading to the 74, even more are planning to bid it next time around.
Who’d have ‘thunk’ Anchorage would become one or our most senior domiciles?

Long-time creeper first-time poster...

Has anyone heard about class dates for late March early April?

For example...Heavy class April 1st and 75/76 A300 April 2nd?

I actually am very surprised at how “senior” it has become.
