Default FDX - Oct Bid Pack Limitations

What's the deal with the OCT Bid Pack. You can only look at your seat in your domicile. Or am I missing something. You can still see archived bid packs, but not current bid packs for other aircraft and other seats. Wonder why.

I wish we knew the number of pilots using bidx. I'm sure the most senior don't care and the most junior don't have any use for it either, but those of us that use it are frustrated by these last minute unilateral changes that lock us out.

Maybe it's time for Fedex to sanction bidx and supply us with it???

Nah, they'd never go for that...

I have looked under other inquiries, and dont see where you can download the old style bidpack. It is ridiculous that the format has to change! I hope the bidx dude can figure this out by next Friday.
