Hi braintrust…with this current Oct AE and the amount of WB A openings now and called for in the next few AE’s, how do you think this will drive NB A movement, specially for the 73N and 320? I’m hopeful this will create secondary A awards on those fleets driving it more junior. What are your thoughts? I’m still a bit of a ways away but remain hopeful. Do want to mention I’m extremely thankful for being here and very happy in my current seat (QOL has been greater for me as a newbie than I ever had before at my previous employer), but hope remains to slide left sooner rather than later. May we continue to live in exciting and interesting times. 🥃

I forget when, but training golden X days are coming soon too which also may drive bidding even more senior.

But since the “1/1” portion of the language isn’t specifically defined, the company may decide they’ll invert the sequence for 2024 and 1/1 really means December 31st.

I agree. I'm waiting to dive in, but want to clear the first few rounds of vacation bidding so that will more than likely have me bidding on next months AE to hopefully have a conversion in Feb/March time frame. I know others in the same boat. We have been waiting for months to clear the holidays and vacation rounds for next year.

We didn't think they would do that..wouldn't doubt that is the case since this company can't seem to automate anything on time.

So, in other words, if I get an award on the next (November) with projected training in Feb, conversion in March, I will bid vacation as if I’m going to be in my current seat? Is it training or conversion that has to be after Jan 31st? Thanks, it’s been 8 years since I’ve switched seats.
