Not sure if there were any A1 available.
The use of a reserve your aware you can only be scheduled to 11 hr on any rpt before 0500.
Yup. That was the reason my original trip was a no-go.
Yes, reserve sucks, especially ready reserve. I alway expect 6 of them a month, whether I bid to fly or not. But I don't expect five 3 a.m ready reserves when I bid to fly! Key word "Fly", not sit on my ass for 6 hrs at 3 a.m. when there is nothing going on. I'm not sure what window I will bid for Februray... decisions, decisions....
