I believe that there are 50%, 70% and 75% contracts available. The part about it being month on month off is a bit of a surprise, I thought the trips per month would be reduced by half!
It would be very difficult to do that within the constraints of Bidline .

No idea as to the details of "Right to Request" but the Aspirational Part Time Work (APTW) contracts come as either 58% or 72%.

58%'ers do a full time month, alternating with a part time month containing a trip for recency, the 72%'ers do a sequence of two full time months followed by one part time month with a recency trip.

Does anyone else know how to initiate a 50% contract at BA? How long you need to work there before you request it?
If it's APTW you're after you apply as part of the annual bidding process (for fleet/seat change), the company will try to grant it but there are no guarantees, and the current Bid document mentions it might be restricted during times of expansion.
