Your seniority number determines for your whole career your Seat, Fleet, Monthly Roster re Days Off / Destinations, Leave, liability to Forced Draft, (effectively) Pay, Staff Travel Rights, Standby Periods...
Given that in 2 months time the "turnover rate" is likely to reduce by ~90%, your seniority number i.e. Date of Joining will go from being of 100% importance to 150%
