Pref bidding is far superior.
And the standard point would be used;
Line bidding sucked the way ASA used to do it. So prefbiddig is better than what was used before.
However, just like many XJT pilots don't know about flightline, an vast majority of ASA pilots DON'T know about the line bid work rules on the ERJ side.
