That's what bidding percentages is for. I save every Wide Report from any seat I would ever remotely plan on bidding. I then look at all of them and bid percentages.

Simply bid what you want at the percentage you want. The RMA has nothing to do with it. Not sure however how much time you needed. Its been out since yesterday.

I'm starting the church of the hopefully less than 12 years longevity to hold a line on the 320B in ATL.

I, along with several others, got a surprise line next month. A sweet month of 12 hour three day redeyes. It'll probably make me miss reserve by the end of the month.

What are our redeyes to atl? Did the junior line finally make it to someone hired in 2000?

That explains why I tried calling about FMLA and all crew resources numbers were busy.

Junior line is still 9300 seniority... There were a handful of vacation induced lines junior to that, but solid bottom lineholder is still well into 1999 or even 1998 seniority. Ugh.

Why would DAL buy Frontier?

This system is totally inadequate compared to the information we had available at NWA. I know you are tired of hearing it, but would you just get beyond that for one moment and think about having really good information verses shooting in the dark. You have no idea that this system is totally bull crap.
