TAFB question

I don't normally bid carryover but have a short C/O from Mar to Apr. My total TAFB is way greater than 120 hours, it's actually closer to 300 hours. I bid a line in Apr to conflict and it's w/i the 48 hour window. The trip has not been dropped yet and I was wondering when it would be removed or it I need to go and do something in VIPS.

Thanks in advance for your input guys/gals.

I think the system is waiting for you to tell it if you want to keep the long trip or the C/O. If you do nothing new trip will be dropped monday am. Go to bid period processing and check the summary page.

It's 25.F.3.b.

A short carryover trip can be dropped to protect a long new bid period trip. The new trip must be in excess of 120 hours TAFB while the carryover trip has to be less than 72 TAFB.

In all other circumstances, the CO trip "wins"
