Is it feasable to just drop a trip if no now will trade? How likely is this? (DCA and ORD FO is what I'm most interested in at present)
No would be the short answer. The system is broken and we, as a pilot group, lack the will to get it fixed. The company controls the drop equation, and they simply aren't offering any in most fleets and seats. Been like this for a long time. That is why I generally the lowest time possible then rebuild by adding flying, not trading or dropping. Fwiw.
