Ironically and somewhat frustratingly he may not get it for July. The problem is that there are about four guys who failed SV/PV/MV or some combination of them, sat at home for the last three months waiting for retrains and now get to skip reserve due to their higher seniority numbers.
Not to hijack thread, but does that seem fair to be bumped down the list after doing your duty on reserve because people blew events in training?

Yes it seems very fair! You new guys are ridiculous. Do you have any idea how good you have it? Most people who have been here more than 3 years Sat reserve for 2-3 years, upgraded in 7-8 years, got displaced back to FO several times, and were never even offered so much as a pencil to write with when we showed up to class. Why don't you take your $20,000 sign-on bonus and some of your 3rd year pay and go cry to a therapist. Seniority is everything in the airline business. It used to be called, "paying your dues." Nowadays, everyone expects that someone else should pay their dues for them.

As an update, friend on 175 was awarded composite line for June. It will be his third month on reserve.

To answer your question, yes it's fair and normal because it's a seniority system based on date of hire.
