FLICA question- when someone gets awarded a trip that's in open time, is there a way to see when said person submitted their bid?

I had a bid that was "processing" for over 30 minutes before finally getting denied; just want to make sure that the system works as advertised.

Good qstn, I don't think WE can tell who place the request first, long "processing" periods are no more or less than CS manually doing the "swaps,drops,pick ups"...supposedly in the order they arrive.

I think we have the only Automated Systems in the industry that have to be manually intervene in a daily basis. (IT, Email, Flica, Payroll, Travel, Scheduling, etc)

If you want to know you have to call CSS and get a time stamp. If your bid was in first and it was awarded to the other pilot they will give you credit as well.

At least that's what I've been told.

Maybe I'm the only one that thinks this is BS... But a rather new CA upgrade picks up a trip out of base, then she posts it on the trade board for two weeks( nobody wants it, who wants a redeye on New Years Eve?) so she calls out sick for it today.. So a poor reserve is stuck doing it.....

Way to F your flying brethren! Don't pick something up out of base unless you intend to fly the trip!

She should probably hear from a chief pilot for that one...

What a rook move to advertise the trip on the trade board and then bust out sick for it.
