For the reasons several of you mention, and more, there will be plenty of people will have actively chosen to stay in the right hand seat. I certainly cannot dispute that as I was one of them for many years on long haul. But I still believe there will be plenty of junior FOs who didn’t bid for it this year, but will next year. Junior FO or junior Captain? Might as well be a junior Captain? Plus with C32L having gone right to the bottom of the list this year, an FO with just a couple of years of seniority will have people below them when they change seats. When their freeze is up, and they’ve had enough, they can choose to demote themselves to right hand seat long haul - precisely the career path being chosen by some junior C32Ls this year.
