Prediction:

The Wall will Fall within 12 months.

Dark Theory:

With sit and extended duty pay plus raining GS NB A will become so lucrative many will pull bids for reserve for years WB A positions and hold off til line holder seniority.

Where (BE) is it raining GS on the NB A side (specifically 73/320)??? July and August don't show that for NY, DTW, LA, MSP, SLC, SEA. Certainly not like what happened last summer. So I'm curious. Also I noticed that NYC NB (specifically the 73) trips have degraded, lots of rotations touching ATL now. Those primo island 2-3 days (even the one day turns are reduced significantly) are now having some DH added or are filtering the 73 crews thru ATL. Looking at the wides it seems that unless in the top 20 of BE, the trips are turning into garbage. Friend of mine (he's around 1k seniority) bid from 73A to 7ER A. I asked him why, he said the trips had degraded so much on the 73 side he had to bail. I don't think the contract is going to help much in that regard. So I see the midrange folks (5-7k on the SL) probably going more to WB B as the NB schedules continue to degrade.

#GoFLex. We're all pulling for you buddy. Next time for sure. And if we ever end up in ICN together the soju and bulgogi are on me.

I was pleasantly surprised to see ATL717A go pretty junior, I did not really enjoy this summer being junior 😩. A couple 11k numbers snuck into ATL320A. I think next bid we see the most junior captains since those crazy bids last year and the year before due to the holidays.

I picked up a bunch of locals on the 717 that only credit 5:15 but pay 6:15+ from EDP…will be a very lucrative month so Trip could be right….but I think WBA stays senior.

Sad to hear. It will happen soon Flex!

From folks I talk to in the mid range seniority, none are interested in bailing for NBA. Many are staying hyper senior in seat or going WBB.
