There is also a situation with seniority trip trading. Say you try to swap to an open trip and a pilot junior to you also wants it. If a pilot senior to you wants the trip the pilot junior to you is trying to drop, it will give him the junior pilot's trip and give the pilot junior to you the open time trip to repair his schedule.
PDRed and legal, and it said that a lot of trip trading happens this way.

I typed a long response of what I think should happen in this situation, and once I reread it I realized there was some kind of seniority issues in everything I typed at every level. However I still view this current situation as the worst violation of seniority in this scenarios, ie someone being completely skipped over.
Point is, I think this situation, any way you spin it (besides the response of senior guy gets whatever he wants, all people below him be d*****d) supports the point of true seniority being ignored for many things here.

Yes, that's fine, the senior guy can have the junior guys trip. But then someone junior to me gets what I wanted. Seniority truly honored?

That’s literally how seniority works. The senior pilot got what they wanted. End of story. Just because there was some fallout to someone junior to you (because the senior pilot had his seniority honored) doesn’t mean seniority was violated in the least bit. You’re just bitter you didn’t get what you wanted.
