I don’t think scheduling is looking past right now. Or flights that didn’t go from the day prior. If you fly a trip at draft and got it because you conflicted your whole month….guess what?! That trip you conflicted will likely be available at draft as well. Ava is almost always on. So you solve a near sided problem for them while creating one down line that isn’t even on there radar yet. Just don’t fly more than your BLG/work days. Better yet. Fly at draft but only 8 days instead of 12. Or is that also helping the company out too much?
