Actually you can drop your trip in Open time and pick it back up that second, you just better hope no one gets to it before you do!!!! A 4 day that pays 32 can be put in open time and picked back up......and end up paying 48 hours. Plus, if any "funny stuff" happens, you could potentially get double time on top of that. For example with less than 10 hours from arrival to departure on an overnight, the entire next day pays double time. It adds up fast when the weather goes south. Yes, aren't SWA FAs the best!!!!!
