Let us know if you hear these words:

1. Any chance I can talk you out of it? ;-)

2. We have exciting news coming soon. ;-)

3. A lot of positive changes are coming this year, you may want to hang on to that letter for a little bit ;-)
Lol. When was the last time rumors actually came true. Or when was the last time a prediction like this actually came true. And don't say Miami because that rumor started BEFORE Miami shut down. Flex pay LOA, FO retention bonus, other LOAs came with very little or no warnings.

Default Hello

I found the bidding guide on our union website and thought I'd share it.

1) ALPA website
2) MY MEC
3) BIDDING INFORMATION (left column)
4) MONTHLY BIDDING GUIDE (bottom)

Cheers

Do they even try to talk guys out of it? From what I've heard from guys who have punched out in the past is that it's pretty much just a "good luck, see ya".

In fairness, that’s been my exact experience with the two airlines I’ve worked for previously. The second one at least asked WHERE I was going.

You mean... the bidding guide that's been posted there for years? The guide that Sam Poole tells you how to locate while he's there during the union visit of INDOC?

Congrats on finding it.

You must be fun to fly with! The guy/girl was simply trying to be helpful.

Wow way to be an ass. If it wasn’t helpful to you just don’t post.

Thanks! Yeah, I am!

If someone is too thin skinned to take a little ribbing for pointing out the obvious... they probably don't belong in a cockpit.

On a similar note, I'd have made a nearly identical comment if someone had posted here telling us the number of wings on our aircraft, that we have a domicile in DFW, or any other basic general knowledge that nobody had asked for.

You do realize that a new hire is exposed to so much freaking information while in ground school that I'm sure remembering the exact steps given to them during a pizza lunch put on by the union is the most important thing on their mind during all of training. Try remembering when you were a new hire, I think you had a lot more important information you were trying to consolidate. Be more empathetic and less egotistical.
