If that is their reason behind cranking up the optimizer, it's hilarious, because like a handful of posts above me, I've hit several 200-300 credit hour months in the last year due to the outrageous amounts of scheduling fires, illegal 23k, reroutes, EDP, premium, etc. I'm on track to pass 2,000 hours credit by the end of the year at this rate. But no surprise they are focusing on fixing the completely wrong thing. Our next major (predictable) weather event is going to be even more interesting! Prediction: they will not be adequately prepared, after passing up the chance to fix the contract at a good price. Can't wait.
