...with the caveat that they would have to move to another base. Nothing in ATL. It'd be simple enough to bid, say, NYC73N and then back to ATL in Nov/Dec, though.

I hope for your guy's sake that you get out. I don't mean to gloat or anything, but I'm super glad I'm not in your shoes!

A bunch of M88Bs have been in touch with them and Contract Admin, they're working on it is pretty much what I surmise.

A email from ALPA seems to confirm they screwed up. I sent an email to crew resources this morning and haven’t heard anything back. It seems like they will have to manually redo the AE but we’ll see what happens. This seemed like a relatively simple award too compared to what lies ahead...

Maybe it's time for the company to send someone in Crew Resources to observe United's process. They get a live snapshot of results while bidding is open and get the final result MUCH quicker than us (with less errors!).

There are a few things from United we could stand to copy/paste to our process.

Apparently 88B has turned into amateur comedy hour/clown show. First they cancel the displacements (which IMHO should have never been done), then they totally dick up the AE giving the same guys a chance to leave. Wow. Thank you sir may I have another!?

Hotel California fellas...You can check out any time you like, but you can never leave!

Our whole AE system needs a significant overhaul. Even when they get burned by it they're still so enamored with its theoretical "flexibility" that the reaction seems to be "still worth it!"

This truly may be a win-win opportunity for us to save them from themselves by forcing significantg changes to the system.
