Open time disappearing
I was monitoring open time for LAX717B, hoping to pick up an out-of-base GS. As of yesterday and into this morning there were five trips in open time, from 2 to 4 days in length, with zero reserves available. This morning they started disappearing. They are all gone now, with nothing showing in Daily Trip Coverage. There is one new trip that showed up in open time, and it subsequently went to a GS. Still nothing for the original five trips. Where did all that flying go? Reroutes? Is this normal? Seems like when I’ve looked before, you can see a trip appear in open time, then see it in coverage later.

They probably went to out of base greenslips or whiteslips. If they pulled them for reroutes that would be illegal since the trips were known about more than 14 hours out. If I were you, I would check into it. I do know a lot of illegal reroutes go out especially when they are short in that category, but most of the time no one knows they are illegally rerouted. I think ALPA needs to step up audits in this area.
