Do the snapshots account for backfill vacancies that are created as people bid? In other words, there's 5 FO spots on the bus in SFO open. A guy already in SFO on the bus has a bid in for LAX and the snapshot shows him getting awarded his bid. Does that mean that SFO will now show 6 vacancies on the snapshot?

I've been saying the same thing since I was hired almost a year ago now. I feel your frustration.

I got a backfill bid awhile back and it did not show up until the final award.

We are getting 787 number 28 any day now and then don't get another one until mid June. Might get a few more bids to cover the next announced route which I am guessing will start up sometime in July, based on aircraft deliveries. But I am not sure if the last bid already covered that unannounced flying.
Bottom line, I think most/all of the bids are done to cover 787 flying until the ones coming in Jan/Feb of 2017.
Hopefully I am wrong and we will see some more bids after the next route announcement. Haven't heard any new rumors on what that will be, but the last Manpower update for the July Intl flying said there was still one more 787 route to be announced.

I'm looking at the graph right now and everything on there has been previously announced.
