Currently, Bidliner is only for pilots working for American Airlines and using PBS to bid for their schedules.
How does Bidliner work?
Simply put, Bidliner is a suite of tools designed to help pilots bid smarter and with less effort. From powerful products like BidGrid—which compares your bids against historical award data and provides advanced pairing sorting and analysis—to helpful utilities like our Vacation Pay Calculator, every tool is built with one goal in mind: helping pilots make better bidding decisions.
And we're constantly developing new tools and features to make every bid window easier, faster, and help pilots be more informed.
Does Bidliner ever access or store my login credentials?
No, at Bidliner, we never request, access, see, collect, save, or use your login and authentication credentials — no passwords, tokens, cookies, or certificates, ever. You maintain exclusive control of your login and authentication credentials at all times. Batch Bid never makes a selection on your behalf. You do all of your research and decision-making in advance on BidGrid, our separate research site. If you desire, you can save your own preferred choices to Batch Bid by Pairing ID on Date. When you're ready, you review exactly what's about to be entered, and choose to submit it one entry at a time, confirming each one, or all at once. Either way, nothing is entered without your review and explicit approval. You agree to check the result afterward. Batch Bid is a feature built into the Bidliner extension, which goes through Google's Chrome Web Store review and approval process for every update we publish.
Do you offer a free trial?
We don't offer a free trial.
Why? We don't offer a free trial because there's no instant fix to improve your bids. Simply signing up for a free month won't guarantee better results.
It's like being given an exercise machine; you need to use it properly to see results. Developing the insights within our PBS knowledge base took years. Bidliner can enhance your bidding results faster, but it requires learning, strategizing, and executing effectively. The Bidliner ecosystem accelerates this process, but users must actively utilize the tools.
Can I cancel or change my plan?
We understand things change. You can cancel your plan at any time and will continue to have access till the end of that billing cycle.
Bidliner is developed by Eric Johnson - AA Pilot, Retired 320 Captain and former PBS Helpdesk Instructor for 7+ years. Eric has reviewed an estimated 8,000 bids on the PBS Helpdesk.
We are constantly developing and are excited for some new products launching soon.
Do you offer individual bidding help?
Unfortunately, we do not offer personal bidding consulting.
