Blue,
You will quickly find that "ACL" is the guy on here who somehow has the inside knowledge about fleet plans, bases, AE's and such. He says he's only putting the dots together, but normally when announcements are made, he's called it on here 2-6 weeks prior. There are other guys on here who get good gouge, too. But, he is the most consistent.
If you find him a picture of two lizards doing it with their privates blacked out, I'm sure he'll tell you what you want to know. (Don't ask)

Most all captain bids are out except the 320.
I assume they knock off for the night around 5pmish eastern right? This is actually about as fast as I used to get a schedule with Carman, good job PBS guys with all 12000 of us now.

It depends a lot on when they get uploaded to the webpage. Things are done many times a while before, but then have to get posted up on the page... that can happen in later hours.

I noticed BA is preparing for a strike over x-mas. Do we have any increase in flying there (GB) during this period or is ALPA making sure none of us are even asked?

I'm sure the answer is no, but is Bid Asst and EzOpen Board going to work after bid period 5? I know I couldn't get the 755B zip file to open in Bid Asst. Does the Navtec PBS print out a monthly calendar and individual rotations?

Ferd,
I just go to Crew Resources and Scheduling.. right click on the PDF wide reports and save it... then just refenece your rotation numbers to the bid pack.
This coming from someone who has rarely held a line at DL.... so there may be a more efficient manner of going about things. Just giddy with anticipation as I search for what rotations were awarded. (leftover may be the more appropriate term for the trips I get, haha)
