And the most senior pilots did not really bid for a PBS holiday trip, only about 15 percent or so of the top 100 pilots did. I thought about it too, but did not bid a PBS holiday trip because I try not to fly bid package trips. But I fully intend to pick up an ARCOS white slip over the Memorial Day holiday instead.
