It’s supposed to open today at noon, but for some reason I’ve been getting a ‘bid awards closed’ message. Has anyone else been having this problem ?

Yes. It's not open and it should be. It's tough to remember to hit the "open bids" button on a football Sunday....

When are the instant (or within 5 month) upgrades going to stop? Is there any writing on the wall? Chance of downgrading?

I will be starting at Envoy in the 10/23 class, and have more than 1000 hours of part 121 experience. That being said, I have spent the past 5 years working in FP&A at a legacy. Although I have been flying recreationally during this time - when I decided to return to flying, I expected to have some time to get refreshed in 121 and company ops...now obviously that seems less likely.

Do you have any suggestions on how best to bid to extend the time between bid ‘award’ and reporting to upgrade training?

Thanks for the info, and for the record - I do how to calculate bingo fuel:-)

You can enter them at any time. It's the bids that are run every couple months or so.

Thanks for the info
