Let’s talk about the problem. We have 643 320B’s in ATL. If half that number had slips in each step of coverage would run 4 hours during the day and 21 hours at night. Guessing that many slips are not in, but CS tells me it is running four hours to get through WS and OOBWS. So, they randomly (every CS does it differently) go to IA, which means OOBWS are also not getting the love. Every CS who has talked to me and a manager complain about the OOBWS wildcard. You have probably noticed that is where CS goes to IA. In this case causation and correlation are the same.

Smaller categories probably aren’t seeing this. ATL 320, 737, 7ER are frustrated. Trip assignment is seemingly random and unfair (if we consider seniority “fair”)

A good case for why batch sizes should be a percentage based on the number of pilots in the category. I'd rather see that vs a blanket change for everyone. Or they could staff the airline for the schedule they want to fly...
