you have to apply internally, know people who got full time 787 in 6-12 months

It is possible, although those would have had to have joined with a 737 type rating and therefore only be type frozen for 12 months, as opposed to a 3 year type freeze for NTR joiners going onto the 737. Otherwise only bidding for dual 737/787 could perhaps get you onto the 78 that quickly, although not all year round.

Hi. What are the chances of getting BRS as a base as a new joiner?

It's a small base but it was offered in the most recent round of new starters. If you don't get it straight away you can bid for it as soon as you join.

Some pilots with joining dates of early 2013 are pencilled in for command courses this winter. Don’t think you can infer from that, that pilots joining now can expect the same in 2025. Although it’s unlikely to be earlier than that, it could be considerably later.

I imagine there are some very unhappy FOs waiting for their command. BALPA strikes again.

Does it matter? I thought the process is still based on seniority.

It does matter if 50 people walk in above you . . .

How can anyone walk in above you if they are less senior than you? Doesn't that defeats the seniority system? Unless the process it's not based on seniority, I don't see how it can affect you. I'm not a TUI employee so I honestly don't know how it works, just making and observation.
