Also, it will depend on reserve coverage as to whether or not the swap will go through... and, of course, whether someone senior to you is awarded a white slip or swap for that same trip.

Another thing you might want to consider is putting in a blind swap request for any other trips you would like to fly. A trip doesn't have to be in open time in order to put a swap request in for it. And you never know if someone else will drop a trip you would want or swap out of it on the same PCS run. If they do, and you have the request in (and are legal for it), you will get it. I used to do that a lot when I was senior in the MD-88B category (large category with a lot of activity on PCS runs) and it was amazing how often I would get awarded these blind swap requests.

Good luck.
