I liked the way my AA regional did it: A trip pops up and everyone in the bucket can say if they want it or not. Most senior pilot can say if they want the trip or not and it trickles down from there.
How did regular short call assignments work when nobody bid for it? Most junior legal reserve gets assigned the trip? Or earliest legal reserve like it is here at JB?
