Nigelondraft is not quite right in his understanding of our P&P process. DEP's cannot be put onto LH fleets ahead of successful internal bidders, the only time this can occur is for pilots that have successfully bid for a fleet change but are still in their first 5 years of service which means BA can ignore their bid
I was not aware of that... thanks for correcting me.
However (!):
Basically it means that you will be able to move to any LH fleet after 5 years
I would still disagree with this. Reasons:
- Post 2006 all progression will slow down - how much who knows, but somewhere between no effect and a complete standstill
- Whilst you are frozen on SH for your 5 years - the DEPs are coming in and taking the slots, and then sticking in them.
- People above you wanting the slots, but held back as well...
In short, I don't think you could guarantee anybody LH after 5 years.... especially post 2006... all IMHO of course <G>
