Just got done with a trip flying with a SEA LCA
She said no downgrades in sept but looks like 25 displacements from ANC and ding 25 sfo slots to help re balance
bud in late July to re balance bases
RIP junior ANC folks

Wouldn't a displacement bid cause downgrades? Via the churn? Or is that just a reduction bid?

This would cause issues for SEA FO’s as well. The most junior ANC FO is more senior than the bottom 25 SEA FO’s. Seems like the most likely outcome.

They'd be stoopid to furlough. Industry-wide hiring will resume next year, assuming boeing starts firing on more than one or two cylinders. AS would find it hard to attract or retain pilots if they were known to furlough at every business hiccup.

This. The ULCCs are brutal in how they shift flying and change base sizes as a result, when they could just deadhead reservists to other bases for a 3 day trip. Wrecking lifestyles and creating instability and uncertainty will cause major attrition below the 25%line.
