So when bidding time comes, if I want to commute and hold a line the quickest, I should pick LAX then SLC, if I want to stay West Coast?

What happens if after 6-12 months I decide commuting sucks and decide to do the smart thing and move to SLC, LA is too expensive for me; am I committed to LAX for a time period, or can I just wait for the next bid?

How often are bids? I was told the next one is end of Feb.

Thanks again,

If you stay in aircraft type, there is no lock on the base. Therefore one may bid say NYC M88, and on the very next bid choose ATL M88 with no problems. If you choose LAX 7ER. You will be locked in the ER category for two years. You could move to the regular 76 in 9 months.....I may be incorrect on this one. If I am, someone will quickly correct me......

Your best bet may be to bid LAX 73N and then move to SLC when you can hold it.
