Yeah.... no way in Hades.

So, we all are going back to the stone ages in about a week from this posting.

APA is written all over this, and more specifically, a fued between the LiteSabre creator and one or more individuals in the APA that simply hate the guy.
So put the union app on your phone?

the requirement to delay a pickup or trade to accommodate a bidding window for each and every scrap that pops open bogs down the process, especially for last minute stuff. So much so at times, nothing gets traded or dropped. The company’s absolute control of open time limits, with almost no transparency, leads to a complete garbage trading environment.

It's why we are where we are. APA is a complete clown show.

Becasue it is highly restrictive.

It's easy to blame AA for conrol over open time limits, but consider:

-PU dumps into open time hogging up headroom

-APA insistance on seniority for that 1% who whined like spoilt children about some mythical perfect trip being pick up by -gads!- someone junior while the sr is in flight.

The trifecta of AA's open time limits, PU drops into open time, and the APA insistance on the washing of trips means a bogged down, cumbersome and totally crap trading environment.

LS's algorithms cut through a lot of that b/s making trades happen in very tight and challenging trading conditions.
