The language was improved and you can now drop the trip as long as coverage in the current month is good.

When you deviate from deadhead, and book your company business positive space. Do you have to make sure there is an F? Or a Y? Available

Don't think it will allow you to book unless there is space available.

Coach only (except for long haul where your DH would have been FC anyway).

Remember that if its domestic and your booking is in coach 24 hrs prior you can upgrade to economy comfort. The first row of EC is almost as good as first.

Can't you also be put on the STBY list for FC although the chances are slim

I thought everyone was just giving us a hard time with the "guard nazi" stuff. Until I rode a 717 jumpseat last week. Not that the 717 catagory is any different, I just haven't witnessed it before, except for the 100 times I've called ramp in ATL on guard and been immediately informed I'm on guard. The FO on the flight I was JSing on, taxiing out of ORD informed 2 guys before takeoff and one airborne that they were on guard, I wasn't monitoring comm2 but judging by his self-satisfaction, he was very prompt. Now I finally get it. We ARE guard Nazi's.

I haven't come across FTB yet, but I've been flashing the shocker....it's only a matter of time.
