As purple said, you can put the trips on the swap board or personal drop them and go down to 0. If you were so inclined and had trips people wanted and coverage that allowed for drops.

Some airlines have a min, say 60 hours. You can't go below it. So you're at 75 with a 4-day worth 20 hours and you want to get rid of it or drop it, you can't. That's frustrating.

You can also drop trips and then pick up only WS trips with a lot of credit and little block time, or even GS or two for bonus, but it kind of requires living in base and some seniority but it can pay very well and sometimes a lot of guts.

LTD's system works well for him too. Or if you're a slum lord and make enough money on the side to take most of the month off, you can do that.

There's all sorts of ways to play it but the overriding thing is it's a great thing to have.
