Default Pot Swap Question

Can I put in a pot swap for a trip that is listed as a pick-up on the iCrew Swap Board? That saves me the step of having to request to personal drop the trip then once approved go into the swap board and pick up the trip.

If it is a Q trip in open time you can use swap with the pot to swap for it. The only caveat being every day of your trip must have more reserves available than required.

You cannot swap with the pot if the trip is only listed on the pilot to pilot swap board as a pick up. Then you would first have to personal drop your trip to pick it up off the pilot to pilot swap board.

They are 2 completely different animals. There can be trips in open time and not on the swapboard and vice-versa. If the same trip is in both (or only in open time) you can simply swap with the pot. But for whatever reason, this pilot decided to put his trip on the swapboard but not as a PD (in open time.)


So you’re now stuck with a 2-step process.
