Talking to a B767 Captain on deadheading sector the other day, and he made the comment that they can't hog all the Honolulu flights and are limited to one every two months now.

The idea is share it around with the younger ones.

Seniority has its place, but when it comes to the bidding wars for destinations, I do think that some sensible limits be used, and a bit of fareness in the camp for the better working environment for all crews.

Just a thought...........go make it happen, you might be surprised that everyone benefits in some way, employer included through better staff morale.

Don't whing about it, work through management and your union for a positive change.

Now of course if you worked for VA, you could drop a quick call into the Borg, or write to him and get a reply.

One last point though, when you do this make sure your proposition is well planned out taking into account all affected groups and facets of the business. Prepare a list of por's and con's. Make a sound business case.

All the best with it
