Common use of BID PACKETS AND BIDDING TIMELINES Clause in Contracts

BID PACKETS AND BIDDING TIMELINES. 1. Bid packets will be made available electronically via a home access computer system and the Company computer terminals located in each domicile on or before the date of bid packet distribution. One hard copy of the bid packet will be available at each domicile or co-terminal. 2. Bid packets will contain all of the sequence information for all of the scheduled sequences in a given domicile and its co-terminals. Each domicile’s bid packet will state the anticipated number of bid lines and reserve lines that will be awarded in that domicile, the line average for the month in the domicile, the minimum and maximum TFP a line can be built to in the domicile and the training dates and locations for the domicile for the following month. 3. Bid packets will be made available to all Flight Attendants at each domicile on or before 9:00 AM PT on or before the fifth (5th) of the month prior to the bid period. In the event of a major, previously unknown airline schedule change, after sequences are constructed, the Company and the Association may agree to modify the Bid Timeline as appropriate. 4. A Flight Attendant must submit her/his bid by 9:00 AM PT on the tenth (10th) of the month prior to the bid period. 5. Should there be a "system failure" at a domicile or co-terminal, the Company will extend the acceptance of bids by twenty-four (24) hours at the affected domicile or by as long as the system failure exists, whichever is longer. The Company will determine when a "system failure" exists. A "system failure" may include those times when the service provider's system is not generally available for access for a significant period due to a failure of the system itself; or when access routes to the system (e.g. telephone service, power, etc.) is not available on a broad geographic scale. Failure of a Flight Attendant's personal computer or failure due to the error of a user will not be considered a "system failure." 6. The system will allow a Flight Attendant to revise her/his bid. The last bid submitted will be honored. 7. The PBS System will generate, track and provide each Flight Attendant a bid confirmation for each bid supplied by the Flight Attendant. 8. The bid award for lines of time will be made available to all Flight Attendants by 9:00 AM PT on or before the thirteenth (13th) of the month prior to the bid period, but as soon as possible. 9. Bid Lines are final as of 9:00 AM PT on the fourteenth (14th) of the month prior to the bid period.
