Where are the new mock bids? All I can find are the last AE’s mock bids.

You know I glanced over it and I didn’t see much of a difference to be honest. Maybe 90% accurate! It was kinda surprising in a good way

Ahhhhh. I’m not bidding but was curious and it sounded like everyone had seen it. Guess I read wrong.

Awesome. Dude, don't change, love your good attitude. We need an infusion of optimism and happy dudes in this profession. We're all gonna complain when times are bad, so let's enjoy the good times while they're here!

Thanks for that! I agree completely. Never know when the music stops!

This has a lot of “they’re out to get me” vibes. Most pilots bid in AEs a handful of times in their career. I think having more info to make life changing decisions is a good thing.

Good luck! I'm facing a similar dilemma in the near future but probably going to wait it out and see if the contract rules plus seniority move the needle on QOL. NYC is tempting but I don't think the commute there is worth it for me. Also I noticed many of those trips up there become uncommutable due to the late arrivals from LHR.
