Just an FYI for L-ASA guys here:
SmartPref is being run parallel to the EWR and CLE secondary bid schedule this week. (For February, Relief Line holders, & Reserves)
IIRC we have already run a solution for EWR on the January schedule, and most of those awards were manually placed by Crew Scheduling.
So, there is, and will be HARD data for your JNC / MEC to look at if they want to.
