Little more nuanced that that, you have to actually put a greenie in to be counted. But yes, no one can fly a second or subsequent until everyone with an active request in that is legal for the trip gets a shot at it. In 16 years @ the Borg mothership, I bid for days off because of kids, so they're not an option for me. Unless I can get a Green Slip with Conflict. Then, it's pay, no credit for the greenie, and credit pay for dropped trip. Normal greenies pay 2x pay, no credit for a line holder.
