The WBid Bidding System
This system is designed primarily for Southwest Airlines Pilots and Flight Attendants to use the WBid Bidding System.
WBid has a proud 20+ year history of serving Pilots and Flight Attendants of Southwest Airlines.
This software allows the user to download Southwest Airlines bid data from the WBid back end, which in turn allows Pilots and Flight Attendants the ability to filter (set constraints), weight (set weights) and sort (set sort method) the bid lines in the downloaded bid data.
Once you learn and master the WBid bidding system (very easy, with lots of help documents and videos), you will be able to bid in no time at all.
The WBid Bidding System has more features and capabilities than any other Southwest Bidding System.
