The seniority based trip trading is what it is whether each of us likes it or not. But not being able to see what is open for the rest of the month seems like a huge negative from what was available before.
Is it still a work in progress?
You can view open trips for the rest of the month for every domicile in open time. Also via the seniority trip trade search function.
You can also advertised your trips. Look under potential open trips.
You can use the real time trip trade to pick up trips from other bases after 1300 local the day prior, or you can use the seniority trip trade system for other trades. Get familiar and it can work to your advantage. I have improved my January schedule via both trade systems so far. Good luck.
