Decoding Bid Awards
Can anyone explain why you have to go thru 205 pages of a bid award to see who got what. Why don't they just put out a simple award sheet like we used to have at lUAL

- MGT is CAL, they do what they know...nothing else
- You can see entire Domicile and see where you would be % and # if you should decide to jump into that bid (assumes everyone on the snapshot does not change their mind.

The only thing you'll find on the snapshot is the people that have put in bids for the ADVERTISED vacancies.
So, you can take the published vacancies and cross check them against the roster for that BES. Those are the only changes on the 200+ pages. Instead of posting only the changes, which would be 1 page, they publish the entire airline's roster.

I don't see a reason for the stupid snapshots anyways. When you bid you put in a percentage too, does it really matter who gets what as long as you get the bid that you want in the end.
Bid what you want and want what you bid......that simple...

What you are looking for is called the Final Vacancy Award Summary. It is in FT, Flight Operations Home page, Select scheduling tab on left side, pilot scheduling link. On the page that displays scroll to vacancies, the select the Final Vacancy Award Summary. You don't need to scroll through 205 pages, you just need to look under the vacancy portion of the the scheduling page........
