April PBS bid awards
Did they pull flying off the NYC 7ER? Do we still have a metric crap ton of NQAT? That's the only thing that would change relative seniority.
I'm <70% and it gave me a reserve line for next month. I have a very simple bid:
Award if pairing report >0800. That's it. Nothing else other than request days off. No "avoids" or anything else.
The reasons says it can't reach min credit for me and dumped me in to reserve. The bid pack had gobs of trips reporting after 0800. Dudes junior to me got lines. WTF?!?
I forget to bid for march. I got awarded a line with my default bid, which is the same as above. I'm really getting tired of this flip flopping around due to their manning fiasco. I really don't understand PBS. I don't think anyone does.

My bid is very simple. So not sure how they are going to tell me to change it.

Assuming your reasons report said “impossible to reach credit window”, then there were not enough trips of any type to build you a line. Your 0800 parameter got thrown out by the Award Pairings line, the last line of every regular bid.
The most likely scenario is everyone junior to you with a line had some other form of monthly credit, e.g. CQ, vacation, carry-in, military leave etc. that helped them reach the credit window.

There's some 69TR happening, but mostly NQAT and the 60 or so recently added that are not trained yet.
Not enough lines so reserve reached pretty deep up the list.
That's all I was asking about, the wildly fluctuating scheds due to bodies and network.
Reserve sucks. It sucks even more when you get blindsided by it.
