PBS category reports. Every base, fleet, seat are there since early last year. You want to see the bid packages it is in CCS, bidding, bid packages. Again all there for BES across the board for two months.

There is a lot more information than we previously had and it's all centrally located in CCS when it comes to schedules and bidding. The monthly schedule update in the bid packages section is also helpful.

Thanks for the advice, but as far as I know I don't have access to PBS on furlough. I have access to Skynet so I can see the vacancy bids and snapshots etc.

I did see someone from my class holding a B777 ORD bid with several guys below him.

I'm trying to figure out if and when to come back. I want some quality of life as I will be a commuter holding a line is very important. The B777 is years away from that anywhere. But if it has 10 trips that would work for me.

B737 I doubt would be a good idea but unless I can see the lines I really have no idea what I could hold.

I am in the same boat..bypassing for now but probably coming back this summer and wanted to see where I sit seniority wise for the different bases. There is some good info on the alpa.org website. Go to the members only section..then council 27 SEA..at the top there is a dropdown menu titled "Documents". From there check out "bid files". One of the pilots has all the bid results pretty much across the system. They are all in zip files. Find someone who is close to your seniority on the bid awards and you can get a general idea of where you stand. There is some good info there!

Trying to determine G-Line for equipment and base. i see it in PBS for my fleet. I can see what people are flying whether a reserve or line. But I'm looking at a growing base/fleet/seat. IAH320. I'm thinking 75% in base is probably going to hold a line. Any thoughts?
Regards.

Welcome to the new UAL. None of us knows what any of this is.

That would be nice. I'm hoping that's the case in the summer. Currently the G-Line is around 50%.

LPA line projection average hours
LCF line construction floor (min hours in a line)
LCC line construction cap (Max hours in a line)

The PBS videos are on the ALPA web site and on flyingtogether. Also the PBS user guide can be downloaded from PBS system documents.
