I was rerouted twice today due to a shortfall in the ATL M88B category. When you look at reserves required and available, it's typically around 50/25 about 5 days out, ten 55/0 the day or two prior. The 717 transition has drawn a lot of pilots out and leadership has failed to appropriately plan ahead for the summer schedule.
17 green slips awarded so far today & still counting. This is a weekday and the beginning of the month too!
