Hoping bunch A330 FOs make that mistake on next big, 90 #s away.

No idea...maybe better chance at being a block holder on the narrowbody. I've been here less than a year and I was 40 numbers away from the 767 in PHL on this last bid. No idea how close I'll be to a Secondary.

possibly seat lock, but it's probably the fact that a widebody f/o will be on reserve for a long time. If the long call reserve system had a longer call out I bet more people would risk it. But commuting to PHL for the 767 on a 9 hour call out is impossible.

Hell, any long call to philly is near impossible. I think most reserve commuters in philly are waiting to get Charlotte.
