If there is someone in the 3-day bucket that is good for the trip they will get it before your YS gets it. Bucket system availability trumps the YS.
Some strategic moving of X-days can sometimes work for stuff like this. If the coverage is good, move some x-days to another block so you are in the right bucket, YS the trip, then move the days back. Have to have coverage though and that seems to never be the case these days.
