17 green slips awarded so far today & still counting. This is a weekday and the beginning of the month too!
You were a victim of our Airborne Reserve System (ARS). Since it costs the same, and is quicker than shortcall, it is the best solution. Our reroute section of the contract is on the failboat. Any idea what SWA guys get for reroute compensation? I do.
