Dropping A Trip Near Christmas - FDX
I couldn't find it in the contract, but what is the scoop on dropping a trip the day prior or the day after Christmas? Didn't know if there was a limitation within a day or two from the 25th. Thx.

Also, there are no restrictions to trip trading off a holiday. I have traded Holiday trips / swapped R days for other days in the month and then dropped the trip/R day I traded for.
This year may be more difficult due to the lack of open time trips
