Default FedEx Percentage Bidding

If one bids:

MEM77F80%

If the pilot is #60 out of 100 (59 senior to him, 40 junior to him), will he be awarded MEM77FO?

Based on what I saw in todays awards, I'm guessing my understanding was backwards.

Thanks,

G

I assume you are saying that is what you bid and didn't get it. What plane are you on right now?

You can only move on this bid if you are in a seat being excessed.

MEM Bus, -1.

I thought it would be considered a Bid to Relieve?

Depends on if any one senior to you bid to relieve.

It also depends on how many are moving into your seat. If 10 move in due to being excessed or bidding to relieve from another seat, then 11 will move out, either relieving, or excessed from the bottom. If 10 move in, but 11 or more bid to relieve that are senior to you, then you will not move.
