Same with ATL88B where the trips had been in the system all month. Most of them started on Monday and Tuesday, so they split them up and made a bunch of two days for Wednesday-Thursday.

I think 9 or so 2-day GSs went out to cover. That'll pay for 9 Christmasfestoons this year. So much so my wife wants me to bid a line next year.

I too wonder how this was missed. Tons of coverage, but only 1/5th of it was available to fly over Wednesday night. I'm fine with it being built as it was and would prefer to not have a fix.
I agree, I just was wondering how it happens, if we are as "Overstaffed" as they say we are. The 5 777 Capt. trips I saw were all 5-9 day, 32-45hr.(x2) trips.

Lots more in there for Christmas next mo. too.

I've got to go buy the Turkey and spuds now...
