According to the union email this appears to be exactly what happened. Can’t see how the whole group is made whole by this deal.. Also, guys that bid a VIL may not have, given a greater potential for LCR or SCR. But we got a “cease and desist” so we got that going for us...

Looks like those that could have held a line in June are going to get 75 hrs pay, no reserve, and the ability to pick up open time. Wouldn’t this also have effected pilots on SCR that could have held LCR? I guess it could be fairly lucrative for those in a certain demographic.

Just another FAIL by the MEC! They should have done a rebid! Just like the company asked us to do a rebid several times. We and they knew about this before the Captain Bids closed. Why do these morons always bend over at the instance when the company wants something from us? They probably think they are smart and see this as a win, but yet again, they got played by the company. Idiots!
Every original June line holder that wants it is well over 100+ credit, and now every pilot who should have had a line will be over 100+ with open time pick-ups.
If they had done a rebid they could have covered all this flying and keep 99% of us below 80 hours.

Copy. It follows generally that if there isn't much open time in a specific base, there wouldn't have been a meaningful increase in lines in that base (or seat/aircraft).
