Not true. From the FCIF Bidding Q&A Section:

Can I bid my current seat at a percentage other than 100%?

Yes. The standing bid award system will allow you to bid your current seat at less than 100% and if that choice is not awarded it continues on to your next choice.

NOTE: The Standing Bid computer program recognizes the most recently awarded seat as your current seat. This may be the seat in which you’re currently activated, or it could be an award for a previous posting in which you have not yet been activated.

The real story here is CGN. 50% empty.

All but one new hire bid out...

FDA package is almost perfect. If they would have only fired 3 pilots, they could have filled it.

What is the game they are playing with percentiles? The numbers have been meaningless for several bids now. Any ideas?

It is a rough indication of where we are short and where the newhires can expect to go.

I think they will end up shorter. The real question is, now that the bid has closed, how many pilots will exercise their option to leave HKG?
