IAD has been absent the past couple months, but typically we have a little flying out that way as well. Long story short, the bus is predominantly DCA sequences.

Reserves in DCA on the bus seem to get used a lot. I suspect it's because we can help cover busted trips at a lot of places: LGA, phl, CLT and we are a small bid status. Junior line trips tend to start early and get back later, lots of 2-3 trips and some 4 days.

Very helpful, thanks! Any real difference in life for D vs. I category? Recently been seeing both in DCA in the class drops and wondered if it really makes much of a difference.

No problem. Airbus is international and 73 is domestic in DC.
