While that can be an OK tool, it wouldn't have don't anything to help me in this scenario. There really isn't much that could help when you're working with bad data.

I go back and forth between reserve and a line. For April I intended on bidding a reserve line so all I did was list the days off that I wanted. Well somehow I started Pairing bid group vice Reserve bid group and never noticed it. All I did was ask for certain days off with no trip parameters or request in at all. Somehow I ended up with some of the best trips and mid week flying.

Oh well - lesson learned - Double check that Bid group!

We've all done something similar at times. The list of things I QC before my final submission continues to grow lol. Glad it worked out ok. I can't remember if this is the case, but I think PBS assumes you want holidays off and weekends off. There could be more, but I'm not certain.
