FDX-monthly bid question
While talking to a friend in Ops last night, we realized that he got a line I'd bid for and not gotten even though he is junior to me. I'm not wanting to screw my buddy, but what (if any) action should be taken here? It would seem that seniority-based bidding has been bypassed here.

Are you new on the Airplane? One possibility is that if you are new (<100hrs) and the Cap is also new, CRS will not pair you and a new Capt together. So if this is the case your Bud might have more than 100 hrs and they awarded it to him.
If the said line paid more than the one you were awarded, you should be pay protected for the difference (small consolation). Contract enforcement is the first place I would start.

Another scenario comes into play if you are in training and bidding pay only.
Only 1 guy can get a line pay only. keeps all of the pay only guys from getting the highest BLG line and passing it down to the first guy who's actually flying that month.
