Good stuff! Vacancies across the board.

Is this MOAB enough for the doomsayers here?

While glad to see a vacancy bid, I also wonder about the commute to ANC. It is an already ridiculous commute at times, but adding another possible 57 commuters could present a real problem getting to work.

This was one of my biggest disappointments with the new contract. At a few GMM meetings I got the impression ANC commuting was very high on their radar and that they're looking into it. Limiting P3s would've been the ideal way of handling it. Instead they incorporated a 24-hour double-booking lock? :rolleyes: So once again, someone poops and everyone must wear a diaper. In the meantime: FRM: DoNotReply@upsdotcom SUBJ:Bumped from UPS**/03Oct16 SDFANC MSG:Please check Flt Ops Web or call Jumpseat Desk 180022*** for info. I have pages and pages of this notification saved on my phone. I'm very happy about us hiring more pilots but I suspect commuting to/from ANC will get even harder. :-( |
I suspect this will make the junior captain a 2006 or 2007 hire.

There will be plenty more chances with only 40 747 captains on this bid. That'll get them through the first 3 planes but not much beyond Still good news. |
Odd. 51 Captain slots on 757 Domestic and only 25 CA slots on 757Z. Even though the Z CA list is greater in Total. One would think it would be inverse.
