check in time is fair and gives everyone a fair chance ( in Theory ) ok
Ah come on, if you want to play that game, then Pilot Joe who was just hired should be able to fly the A330 instead of only the pilots who have been there for 25 years. Give me a break. Part of the perks of working for a company for many years is that you get better perks. That is what senority is all about. Reward the people who have been there more years than you. If that isn't fair to you, then well, life sucks, get use to it. Your time will come when you get to be at the top of the list. Hell, you HP guys will be more senior than a lot of US guys who have been working in this industry for much longer. Do you think they want to her you b**** about what is unfair? You are talking to the gods of bad luck here. They have gone through hell in this industry.
