Who Dey? We Dey. Sorry couldn't resist.Thanks for the input guys. I will check out the ALPA website. As far as moving how could I give up the Bengals for the Lions. The Bengals are far superior. 1 win and a tie vs 0 wins come on.
I usually don't post much but here it goes. I am on the bottom of the seniority list and was wondering how jr CVG is. It is my home so I would like to stop commuting to DTW. Yes bitter Dal guy(jetjockey) I will be getting a better lifestyle if I get CVG but in 10 years I was supposed to be halfway up the list now I will only be 1/4 of the way up. My % on the list 10 years will be hurt. I am not complaining I am dealing with it. If I can get CVG after SOC I would like it. I don't think that is screwing over any Delta pilots. So back to my point is there a chance to get CVG? I am down in the real low 12000s
With all of the displacements going on don't count on seniority being of any value in regards to backfill into open psoitions in CVG. For some reason the union allows people being displaced priority for seats created by movement rather than senior pilots.[/quote]
This is a false statement. Just like when the company opened the CVG ER base the AE is run first followed by the displacement bid. If the person on the displacement bid is senior to someone that got the bid via the AE then they bump them out. Seniority is still king. The problem comes from a bid that is mostly displacements. Then the displaced pilot can bump someone out of category if they are senior enough to bump that person. Now if there was no AE for that slot you don't get looked at if you had an AE bid preference in for the same category if you are not being displaced. I know this is clear as mud but I can give an example if you still don't understand.
With the amount of aircraft movement the company is talking about in the near future, everyone better have their displacement bids up to date.
The problem is the much different demographics, bases, and equipment at the two companies. The day this merger was announced the writing was on the wall that the NW guys would move to bigger equipment closer to home ASAP. I don't blame them.
Yeah, while the NWA lawyers were arguing about their Super Premium Widebodies, we should have been arguing about our Super Premium Bases.
It's ironic. I think Delta pilots in the middle of the list would have been better off with the NWA proposal......DOH with 10 year fences.
