I don't have the time to dig through bid packs but if someone wanted as many EWR trips as possible what would be the best plane? I remember in the past it seemed like the 717 and the 320 had the most and the 73 had 0. That still accurate?

320 hasn't had any rotations touching EWR for a couple months and September will be the same fwiw...

The most recent update said 717 EWR departures are down. I think it said the 88 was picking them up.

EWR ebbs and flows dramatically by fleet and month. Its just not really possible to sharpshoot them anymore. Your category might get them for a long time, and not see them for a long time.

The web app wasn't designed for the surface, but what is?

I found a work around - buy a $12 mouse from BestBuy or where ever. It took me longer to get the mouse out of the package than it did for the surface to recognize it and let it work.

Pointing, scrolling and selecting are now much easier.

If you would rather just b!tch, then as Rosanne Rosanna Danna said "Nevermind".

Have you tried the analyze feature on the new webapp? Give it a whirl and report back on how great the app is compared to the DA.

Sorry,

Never used the DA so I can't compare. I've used Easy Bid for years and the legacy interface.

If you want the DA back, contact NAVBLUE and convince them. It is what it is and b!tching about it won't get you the trips you want next month or the months afterwards.

I'm new to LAX and just got assigned a trip out of ONT with a 5am show. Any suggestions on the best way for a commuter without a car to get from the LAX area to ONT and how long it should take?

Sorry no help, but ouch!

Maybe an Uber, but at least there SHOULDN'T be any traffic at 3am....but you NEVER really know in LA!

Depending on where you live, it might be worth flying into ONT tonight (I know SLC has direct into ONT on DAL) and getting a room near the airport. I think the hotel cost using Priceline or some other discount site might be only a little more than you'd pay for transpo from LAX to ONT. Good luck!
