Bidding at British Airways
Hello, I have a few questions regarding the bidding system just to understand it better as I’m slowly working up the hours to the point where I’m trying to decide whether to give BA a shot or stay at my current airline (the blue and yellow one).
Say I join the the A320 fleet as an FO then decide to become a CPT later on the same type, would I then be able to bid for a position on widebody aircraft as a CPT or would I have to return back to being an FO?
Regarding the roster, I’ve heard that basically further up the seniority you basically “create” your own roster, what does this exactly mean?
What have your experiences been using a seniority based system as opposed to an airline which doesn’t have any?
Thanks!
