Agreed, more 330/350s is fine by me.

This combined with the real possibility of paybanding will likely ensure there are no unbid WB B spots.
Not to mention how stupid senior the 330 will probably go if the AIP passes. I mean, why do super long-leg days when you can have a better trip mix and shorter flights for the same pay?

Newbie question...will there be significant backfilling in this AE? Could we see more NB A positions awarded than what was posted?

Any time there are WB A spots offered there will be a cascading effect of NB A openings due to senior NB As taking the upgrade. Those vacancies are usually backfilled, but not always. If there is a NB A position you want that is not posted, put it on your bid or you won’t get it.

Lots of us SEA7ERBs are getting emails from CPO asking, "Where is your China Visa?". Might be a clue...

Thanks, I will bid with that in mind and see how the cards fall.
