Oh ok I didn't realize that. But let's say I could hold it seniority wise(using the person who would be displaced), but not unless I bumped someone jr. You can't bump someone JR on an AE, but you can on a VD, right?

I'm just amazed by the amount of overreaction that goes on, partly due to an over-saturation of media. I totally get why these guys are upset, and why they feel that they should not be charge, wholeheartedly I agree with them. I don't necessarily agree with the way they went about it, but even that is not the issue.
I'm just floored at how everyone and their mother is out to demonize DAL, or any airline with a similar policy, and it's ironic to see politicians jumping on the bandwagon now as well. It just disgusts me to see certain Politicians slug their way into the limelight trying to capitalize their own agenda on the back of a minor news event.
When DAL is wrong I'll come out and say it, but I think people need to lighten up and move on from this.

If seat locked: You will be able to bid a Capt. position or a new category regardless of lock. Or, You can take a VD to any position the person you are protecting can hold UNLESS it is an OPEN position in which case you will be awarded it based on your own seniority.(ie. new category or vacancy)
If not seat locked: You will be awarded your AE first before your VD.

Wait, I was going by the ATL 320 where there was no one already in the category. Your last part is correct. I am still learning too. Just bid for what you want is the main thing.

Keep in mind that when you VD, you use that person's seniority that you saved from getting displaced for displacing into a category, not yours.

15 minutes of fame - enough said. BZ to them for serving our country.
BTW O'Reilly had a good analysis this morning on F&F. He said, this is what you get when you don't pay your employees enough (DAL) and then take away whatever power they might have to make a good decision at their level.

I'm picturing one of those Frank Luntz graphs that shows the lines going up when his focus group dials up their dial thingy's. I think I just broke mine dialing it up off the chart!
