EK-could not bid for string of days off

I tried to bid for a block of five days off but the analyser rejected my bid. I then reduced it to a string of three days off and the same occured.
Has anyone encountered this problen when trying to bid for a string of days off.

My guess is that EK is trying to reduce the number of bidding options for days off.

I think the bid system's a bit 'up the spout' as it wasn't working well on the 1st when I last went into it - so much for bidding early for Feb

I don't think the analyser considers days off and I don't believe it can "reject" any bid. All it does is tells you if you've bid for something that clashes with something else.

The analyser doesn't consider the string of days off to display to you, but the Cronos system will consider your sting bid when it comes up with your solution. So ignore the fact that the analyser doesn't display it.

Of couse your string of days off is not immune to manual insertion, nor are you likely to get it bidding unproductive trips.
