Thanks guys!
Is it true also that there is a short time after the bid comes out that you can drop trips and pick up trips?
No, the flight attendants have this feature. We just got the software finished for the pilots and it is supposed to be up and running sometime soon.
Lyod said:With PBS can you request certain days off. Like say you needed the 15h-17th off for a wedding can you put in to not work 15-17?
ORD guys.. How are those trips out of chicago? Do you do alot of ORD-XYZ / XYZ-ORD all day. Or do you leave ORD and go point to point and end up like down in Utah or Cali two days later. With PSA we do hub and spoke all day, it get boring!
Thanks again guys, you've been very helpful!
PBS let's you request almost anything you want, the trick is learning to bid to get what you should be able to hold based on seniority, not so easy. Although as an ORD local I get what ever I want even though I'm bidding about 70% of the way down the FO list right now because I want what commuters don't want which is locals. As for the trips there is a good blend of everything. Hub and spoke or 4 days which don't come back through ORD until the end. I saw a great 3 day recently

What a fun trip, you credit almost 7 hrs the first day, get all of day 2 off and still get paid guarantee for the day and block almost 8 hours the last day. A 3 day trip worth 19hrs of credit and you get the whole second day off in Eugene. I wish I had bid for that one now but it probably went senior.
