I am thinking perhaps you cannot check in online to non-rev home but need to use the kiosk?

Thanks Scoop
There are some places overseas you can't check-in online or use a kiosk, you must use an agent. Let me look - Nope, AMS isn't one of those.

OK - Thanks. I just told her to try the Kiosk and if that does not work to see an agent.

Where are you checking the list of places that you must see an agent?

Thanks Scoop

She can use the kiosk. Should work with her passport but if it doesn't just enter the PNR. You can't check in online for AMS flight.

Well if anyone would know how to non-rev out of AMS it would be the "Flying Dutchman."

Thanks Scoop

Easiest to check with the agent, my wife had a positive space out of AMS
and she still could not check in online or via the kiosk, had to use the agent, the systems do not talk to each other...who would have thought!

Nov unstacking/coverage was wierd...
Bottom 14 guys of 75 were unstacked on 8Nov and 15Nov weekends... NO unstacking (coverage) for Thanksgiving or that last weekend after TG at all.

Seriously? More flights over TG than any other time of year, and yet more guys wanted off those two weekends than wanted off on TG, by 14 of 75 lineholders! Wow. Here I thought I was one of the few who had opening day of deer season as my #1 priority!

Reserve guys got coveraged ALL/EVERY weekend up to #9 out of 21 reserves, and the 16Nov(sun) got coveraged up to #6 out of 21! DAT is the suxxor for guys who bid reserve to get a good sched. Guys 15-20 below #9reserve got weekends and TG off, he got coveraged every weekend. I'm thinking bidding reserve to get your days off for Nov is NOT the big one...

When I lived in NH, bow season opened Oct. 1, then muzzle loader season opened Oct. 15, and finally gun on Nov. 1, but was only 15 days long!

Most guys I bow hunted with only did bow to get the extra deer tag. If you got one with a muzzle loader early, you were done unless you bought a bow tag, which would get you one more tag.

Biggest buck I ever got was a big 10 pointer in Dawson, GA a few years ago. I hit it with my daughter's car at 10pm, while driving her back to Auburn after Thanksgiving! Nearly totaled her car.

The two cops who showed up ended up fighting with two red-necks in camo, over who was going to take it home!
