Travelnet gurus, I'm looking at a flight in about 2 weeks and it's showing 23/69 av/au as of today. Is it safe to assume that they are willing to oversell this flight by 49 pax because historically that many passengers don't show up? That's a pretty high number. It is an international flight. The only reason I ask is because first class is showing 19 open. Don't want to be left behind because coach is oversold. Thanks.

So if you're Auburn who do you hire as head ball coach next year, and it can only be one of these two...

A) Les Miles
B) Lane Kiffin

We will trade you Bobby Petrino.

Yes. It's 75% off second or third day delivery, can't remember which. You have to go to a no-kidding FedEx office, not a third-party vendor that ships with all companies. Just show them your company ID and ask them what's the cheapest option; it always comes up 2nd/3rd day and it's a great deal.

Two weeks is an eternity when making specific flight plans as a non-rev. Yes that is what it means, it seems on certain routes there are a lot of no-shows/misconnects etc.

The fact that there are 23 unsold seats two weeks out is a good start though (especially with 19 more in Biz unsold).

Good luck.

I just noticed I have 2 payback days showing on my time card. Woo-hoo! Now what are my options and how are they best spent. I'm on reserve for the forseeable future.

If you think you will bid a line before they transform into vacation days, save them. Use them to drop a couple of high time one-day trips or a high time 2-day.

If a line is not in your future, I recommend using them before they become vacation. They will be worth 4 and change on reserve but only 3 and change as vacation.
