787 PHL is arguably the most desirable in the company. The most junior FO there has been in that same spot for at least the last few awards and other, more senior, pilots keep coming in above him on each of the awards.
It is likely to have a few pilots move in behind him on this next vacancy, but it will still be well over 5 years to hold 787 PHL. I know at least a dozen pilots that have been here at least 5 years that have that as their first choice, including me.

They are both excellent, I am just saying DFW basically hits all the international sectors, not just Europe.

I would argue that DFW has the best in the system: basically the same Europe destinations minus Portugal, and has Asia, South America, Australia, Hawaii, and a couple domestic US cities also. PHL has zero South America, and does not go beyond LAX west coast.

im not sure how many going NB to WB, but I bet 5 or 10 of those 78 right seaters are going to go left seat of those 40 slots.
Though if for arguments sake, if all 40 78 FOs go CA, would that mean 40 more vacancy awards NB FO on this bid? Or would those be the known vacancies for the next bid?
