If I want more days off, then bid a line that conflicts with vacation days, right?
No, you only get paid your BLG or RLG. The vacation days and the trips they conflict determine your days off for the month. In your first scenario above, you would simply fly your regular line and use no vacation hours. The leftover vacation hours, up to 40% of your yearly total, as mentioned above, will be paid at the end of the year.
