Don't know. Never asked. They probably have more trips than people to cover them, so some go to open time. Shouldn't say there's a huge amount in open time but usually enough that I can swap out things that I hate. I did 2 swaps for next month: swapped 2 LGA-PBI turns for a 2 day trip, then swapped that for a different 2 day trip. Of course you can also do direct swaps with other people or straight pickups on something they're trying to drop.
You could possibly get contract language that x percent of trips/block hours must remain unassigned to be used for open time trades.
