Your point is valid. But you never know what may happen. If a bunch of 5, 4 or even 3 day trips pop up, especially on the weekends, nobody is white slipping that unless it has very low block. My best ever 3 day WS was a late night departure to AGS, layover 33 hours, mid morning departure back to ATL. Go home. 2 hours block. 15:45 pay. Wonderful.

Precisely. Even as a junior guy on the 88 I was able to get rid of one or two trips a month via swap board. Many commuters looking for time that can't rely on the WS/GS strategy
