New Menu System
The CCS menu system has changed. All the same CCS functions are still available. We have upgraded the menus to improve the layout and harmonize them with the integration of legacy UAL Pilots into CCS. We hope you will find the new locations to be intuitive. Please click here if you wish to view the New Menu Guide for help locating a CCS function.

When I select some of the options it logs me out.

Looks like they're loading the newly arranged seniority list for those flying on the LCAL side in CCS, Reports, Staffing, in prep for the October bid month. It will bring up the August staffing but the September (current) bid month just comes up with a "No Records Found." It was there before for the Sept PBS bid.

Flight Operations
Sep 07

On the evening of September 6th, we loaded the integrated seniority list into PBS.

The only impact for L-CAL Captains will be the change to the displayed System Seniority number.

Many L-CAL First Officers in the 737 & 756 Bases will see changes displayed not just on their System Seniority number but their Base Seniority number and percentage. This is a result of re-ordering the over 600 legacy United Pilots who were previously hired to fly for legacy Continental. Pilots should check back before PBS closes for changes to their Base seniority and G-line and carefully consider their bidding strategy in light of these changes.

PBS will process bid awards normally using your adjusted seniority number.

On Monday, September 9th, the October staffing adjusted to reflect the ISL will be available under the Reports menu in CCS. Thank you for your patience as we integrate this significant change into our system as rapidly as possible.

Should you have questions or concerns, please direct them to your Chief Pilot Office.

How are we going to bid on the vacancy bid this month? Through CCS? Can't access it except for messages.

They eliminated the standing bid page according to the help page. So, how do I adjust my base preference?
