It's hit and miss, slightly more miss unfortunately. SAP opens tomorrow at noon PHX time on FLICA. As soon as you're able, ideally the literal second it opens, try to drop it. Guys are on their computers just ready to pounce as soon as SAP opens, and it's first come first serve. So if they beat you to dropping those days off, and we're only above the buffer by one, they get it.
Once it opens you can also see what the reserve buffers are at for those days, if we're above them, etc. Unfortunately you can't drop partial trips during SAP.
If you're unable to drop it, look for a favorable swap instead. Barring that, just keep an eye on it; sometimes you'll get lucky and we'll get above the buffer again.
