No, you couldn’t trade day for day. I don’t know of any other airline that allows it. Wasn’t day for day trading a consolation prize for losing pay protection from trips touching vacation here at AS? I do like being able to shotgun my days out and have been able to turn many months into “vacation” months. However, having to pick back up to a monthly minimum negates some of the potency of day for day trading. I’ve found that 3 days together or spaced by a day is the sweet spot.
