If I understand that correctly, it begs the question of when the next vacancy bid (or system bid—not sure which term is more correct) is set to occur.

Did I get all that right?

I think they can still technically offer classes until the cows come home. Just can’t award fleets (ie., actually run a class) until the system/vacancy bids are complete.

Yes you did..system bid will be soon..UPS is never in a rush

Reportedly there are still open slots from last system bid.

That is generally correct in the industry although some contracts give the company (in some circumstances) the ability to assign new hires to aircraft or even domiciles out of seniority. But generally old-hires get first crack at everything.

Lesson #1: Expectation zero. Substitute next few weeks to next few months.

Definitely sounds like they are trying to finalize class dates, etc. Probably a lot of uncertainty with staffing needs while trying to determine whether planes get parked and how many.
