ive used both systems pretty extensively and can say TOC is superior.
the number 1 pilot here has thousands of noncons senior to them. Almost 1,000 FAs alone.

this is part of the reason I would like to see time of checkin factoring into NR priority. Maybe TOC for s2s or DOH for the first hour of checkin then TOC after that.

Not interested in hovering over a button to try to QuickDraw somebody hired last week.

When I was commuting there was a flight attendant who lived in my neighbohood with a 1970s hire date, and would list for what was my "wide open" commuter flight (5-10 open on a CRJ200) with 3-5 grandkids after I was already at the airport. "Wanted to take the grandkids to see a show/go to macys/whatever nyc thing"
You knew more than 20 minutes ago you were rounding up the grandkids (who were all oddly S3s). I saw you picking Alex and Amy up because their mom lives across the street from me at lunchtime.
Just list so we can plan accordingly. You were hired before 50% of the seniority list (FA and Pilot) was born. You will get on.

I've thought a good system would be 12/24/36 whatever pick one out, all listed by DOH. At some point it goes to check-in time vs that.

the difference in pilot seniority between a June 2021 hire and a June 2024 hire (3 years) is about the same as between a June 2021 hire and a June 2001 hire (20 years). Someone hired this year can look forward to decades of getting beat out by tens of thousands of employees and their families all hired within 3 years of them.

One issue i see with this…….when you are trying to get somewhere and that day goes into the crapper, wouldn’t this system destroy our ability to be flexible? If i dont make a flight, and want to try an alternate route, it would be pretty crappy to not get on because a new hire checked in before you on your backup plan. Id rather just keep it senority based in this hypothetical situation that will never actually arise
