I don't want to be a head coach. I'll stick to being a pilot. Geeze. What a game.
A win is a win, but yesterday my brother (LSU alum) said LSU is the worst 5-0 team in the country. Sloppy win.

I have learned there are many "should be automatics" that aren't.
Put in the request last night after the last sort. Now it's Sunday and 2 sorts have happened and it is still 'active' What gives? I did have a process until date of the 5th (2 days.) Should I make the process until date the following day? The trip is still shown in 'actual' open time. Huh....

Baja, Look under your bid and check the DENY button. I think it's the F4 down below. That will show you why the swap was not honored. Most likely a lack of reserve coverage on that day which is complete bull.

Everybody I know who commutes leaves a car in the Landside lot.

This was mentioned on the discount page and in a few other publications.

Umm, I've flown him from DEN to ATL and he sat in first. He did insist that every medallion that could be upgraded go before him, but he did take the last seat.

Is there some reason that we can't used the LANDside for commuting in ATL? I see why they don't want us using AIRside if we're not working, but what's the big deal with Landside since we would still be clearing security?

I would still call scheduling. They may have the sense to see that you will be qualified by then and put the trade through for you. They might not, but it never hurts to ask.
