Also be aware, if they get to the end of your makeup bid and have not been able to build you a complete schedule from your requests (due to senior people grabbing trips you wanted or whatever,) they stop. They don't automatically add R days or trips you did not request. You could end up with a BLG in the 40-50 CH range. I found this out the hard way. I knocked out a week long trip and only got 2 6 Ch trips on the makeup bid. Ended up with a 50 CH line. Make sure you bid everything you are willing to fly, to let them build you a line.
