Two years. They are bidding for a captain slot not being displaced to one.

That actually is a good question, since the august batch of OCC decs shows as disp in the flow plan

Default DEC

You are absolutely NOT seat locked as a new hire. However once you choose to bid off that and are assigned you will be seat locked for two years or until displaced out of that seat.

This is factual. DECS are not seat locked for two yrs until bidding out.

Most recent vacancy (surprisingly) some DECs were able to preference bid out of ORD (CRJ/145) & also LGA. Looking back I saw DCE, OCC, OCL, OCE for known DECs.

Goes to show how quickly things can change. We all thought LGA base was the inevitable destination for all DECs just 5-6+ months ago & endless Reserve.

Check them out now.

True, the next 3-4 bids should be telling though as the 2016/2017 hires hit their hours and displace to upgrade into what their seniority can hold.

It will be interesting to see the ripple effect of that the next 12 months or so.

That’s why I listen to almost zero of people’s opinions on forums. They can’t see 2 months out, let alone years. Can’t go with the swings...just stay level headed, have a good attitude and enjoy the ride.

It's one of those "I want to believe" type things!

Thanks for the little dose of reality.

It wouldn’t hurt to try and keep you’re options open, my class and a few other classes got offered all 175 DFW/ORD. Things change but it doesn’t hurt to give it a shot

Anyone in class today? Hearing rumors the 175 train left the station and was replaced again by the 145 train.
