Unfortunately, I am afraid it will be a game of whack-a-mole. Even when they lose, another will pop up as long as guys like Carl are around.

Hi guys, A quick question on picking up a trip from open time. Does swap with the pot allow you to pick up the trip right away or is it processed like a white slip at different times during day? In other words what is the advantage of swap with the pot over just using a white slip? Thanks. I normally just fly what I bid.

Swap with the pot is just that, you swap one of your trips with the trip in the pot. A white slip is a straight pick up. You pick up a trip in addition to whats on your line.

White slips are processed before swap with the pot. The processing times are published in the contract. (I don't remember the exact times) Nothing is right away.

Now to take a break from our regularly scheduled DPA vs DALPA fights.

Just finished a charter and was talking to the coordinator. According to him we are looking for 12 or so A320s to use as year round dedicated charter aircraft. That would put the VIP configuration in them and quit using the 319s. Evidently we are picking up more NHL and baseball charters that makes this feasible.

No back to the fighting.
