Landlady welcome back to BA!
You are very welcome!
The bidding system generally works ok for me,like everything it takes a while until you get your bidding"tweaked"!when you find a way of bidding that works for you then stick to it!its fab now on EF to be able to bid,so you can choose to bid for whatever suits your lifestyle....some crew bid just to do there and backs,others bid for trips,you can also choose what time you want to start work,some people love early starts,some dont....of coarse you will sometimes get things on your rosta that you dont want but just grin and bear it as there are a lot of financially rewarding flights to do on EF!!
Have fun!!
