I beleive you get that message for the last six or seven days of this month when the PBS run is going. The carry in data for your current LOT is locked in the PBS computer so no changes are allowed.

All they can say is no. But remember, you only get to do one APD per anniversary year. You can take up to 4-days on that one time. There are certain days around holidays that APDs are not allowed.

Thank you.

Thanks. Never heard of that one. Too bad once pbs is done, the day I'm trying to trade will have come and gone...

Do what I do when that happens:

Look at the reserve Coverage for your seat. Lots of blue days? Good. Swap an earlier off day for the off day you need sooner, and when PBS is done swap the other day in to the off day you moved.

Easy peasy.
