Vacancy bidding page updated and live.

Looks like another in the near future.

I’m not smart enough to recognize when that page is “live”. Looks the same as it did earlier this week. What does that mean?

When the bids are rapid fire in the fall, the screen often opens right before another bid is announced. In the summer when vacancy bids are very spread out the screen will be open for a long time with no announcement of a new bid. My guess is that if it’s open, it’s “live.”

also of note several widebody CA categories show me less than 100%. Usually means they have added positions but haven't run an update with anyones bids submitted.

On top of the list it shows it was updated this morning.
So it's "live". Probably another Vacancy will be announced tomorrow. ?

Aren't all bids preceded by a Crew Resources Update?
I'd consider that to be much more reliable than the vacancy bid screen being updated.

Crew Resources Update comes out same time when the Vacancy Bid opens.
We'll see tomorrow...?

Anyone know if TK has been acquiring off site simulator training time? I'm reading in other places that may not be an option because third party simulator time is pretty much booked solid for the foreseeable future.

I wouldn't expect much as per the last update. Supposedly just a clean up, as we're pretty much done staffing for 2020. Have to wait until the fall for more MOAB's. Hope the trend continues. Now, about that profit sharing! :D

Don’t have access to the bid. Can someone post the most junior 75 and bus bases, plz. Thanks.
