I bid 57% for September LAX FO.... I bid for 1) max credit 2) back end commutable 3)max weekends and not much else.... What did I get? 85 hrs, two Sundays off and FEWER than usual commutable trips. (two coverage trips). But I got 12 days off instead of 11 and only 85 hours while bidding max credit as top priority... And, yes I know how to set up PBS. I think the last couple of months have been really screwed up somehow. I know some of the folks in crew planning and I think they are good people but I reckon you need a PhD in math to get PBS set up right on the company level.
