The real question is why the 30 additional slots in IAD? There was only 1 vacancy, and it seemed like they were staffed pretty well. (15 reserves for 45 lines). That just seems like a lot considering it is almost doubling the staffing.

I think they're back filling the folks who bid back to ATL.
 
Did this really require a new thread? There are currently 8 threads on the first page discussing the same topic. The moderation on this forum is terrible. You would think with all the ads, the owner could afford to pay a moderator to hold down the fort.

Yeap we just got a pay raise of a 100%.. still can't buy a soda with it.. testing the waters of the Terms of Service with full understanding is rather foolish... there is no warning for that...

Max Q, I'll working on merging some of these posts just for you... but some will end up in the non-av chat..
 
tons of flying being done by ATL based pilots in the UA system next month. Look at the lines, and you'll see how many of the pairings do 1 or 2 days out of 4 flying for UA. The increase in IAD must be to cover this flying.

Let's not complain about that part. They didn't staff that place nearly enough.

No complaining. Just curious is all.

BTW. For this month, IAD is staffed the same as the 200 and 700 in ATL. There were 15 reserves for 45 lines. That is 25% on reserve. Now, if they are needing more lines that is a different story.

Also, there were 12 bid-backs to ATL, and 26 new awards. So, a net of 14 extra.

And visa versa. We even have DCI flying out DTW with 73xx flight numbers along with ATL and MEM flying.

That was to allow for bidding back and forth. There really weren't any slots. That simply allowed for someone to go to IAD without having to do a swap.
