they've pretty much already confirmed they'll run a 365 day bid next year. Not like they need to award the displacements. We all know what they post to what they award is not accurate what so ever anyways...

Can 2-3 months of training staff up the A330, 767-400, and A350?

why can’t it be a 365 bid? They get one each calendar year.

on another note the way I read the contract they could even post the bid in 2021 and as long as they don’t post the results til on or after 1/1/22 it would be allowed. This might help them squeeze every bit of training in per Big E’s observation about a potential shortage of WB crews
