Suffice to say...there really is no pat answer to this question.
Every airline assigns seniority differently. Every airline hires differently. Every airline fills classes differently. Every airline staffs differently. Every airline changes the way they do all the above frequently.
Basically, you get hired and wind up where they need you, at that immediate point in time, on whatever new or old aircraft they need you on, according to whatever cockamamie plan of the week they have come up with at that specific point.
Sometimes you have a choice, other times you do not.
None of that really matters...You got hired. You are a Lucky Man. Go with the flow. Cooperate and Graduate.

One seniority number could also mean the difference between staying a career F/O at UAL/AA and being a CA at JBLU, WN, or NJA.Big mistake, even one seniority # could mean the difference between furlough/staying employed, or CA upgrade in 5 years instead of 15. You never know. Keep the seniority!
