Finding Trips
Hey this may be a stupid question, but how do I go about finding trips in VIPS on specific days without knowing the specific trip or flight number? The reason I'm asking is that I"m getting close to going non-current and would like to find a trip to possibly PDO bump another pilot.

I'm assuming you don't use any fancy bidding program. So, you could use jumpseats to find the flt number. And, using vips with the flt number would give you a trip number. Be careful though, as Jumpseat uses local time and VIPS uses GMT.

ALPA FDX Jumpseat Finder
With the ALPA Jumpseat Finder, you can search for flights by Originating airport, Arriving airport, or City Pair. Flights are listed by Zulu date.
VIPS > Trips and Services > Flight Display takes you to the Flight Leg Display, click on the Trip Number from there.
