True. While I don’t agree with you that if you can’t get into a category on a particular bid it is the same as not being able to hold it.
The key distinction being award vs hold, to hold it you must already be on it.
I do agree however that our AE system flat out blows and our seat locks indeed lag our peers. Combined this can really negatively affect a Pilots ability to bid I just don’t think it is accurate to insist if you can’t get a seat on a particular bid equals not being able to hold it.

But then the waffle house waitress dropped two plates on the table and toppled his orange juice in his lap.
He didnt flinch. Because he was serious. And we were deaf.
So dont knock it until you tried it.

A wise old sage, Pooky, after a night of Velcro Pygmies once told me "dont knock it until you try it." I forgot what he was talking about.

I wish I didn’t try so hard to get out of there. Those years were so fun.

He's the youngest ATL320A. 8 younger than him in NYC. Youngest current Delta Captain is 33. This is up from the junior 88 Bonanza when the youngest Captain was 27. IMO 20s Captains will return over the next couple AEs with the Widebody expansion combined with rise of 220 and 717s moving East
