Usually by the 20th, there will be more open time, as guys get their military schedules and all that.

So we are shrinking the Atlantic, AF is adding capacity and just ordered 787s and 350s. Seems AF is benefiting more from this JV than we are.
It's more than made up by all the flying we're gaining from the Alaska code share.

Oh wait....

Ha ha. Every single trip I put in for a blind swap is better than the trips I have. If any of them go through, I'll consider myself ahead. I think. I'm just excited to get a break from reserve. Things are looking up for me...even if it's only for a month.

If you're putting in for specific trips then you aren't really doing a blind swap.

Hi guys
Is there a way to put in a swap and see how much credit you get for the swapped trip as opposed to the one you have on your sked/ I have a carryout 4 day that starts on the 30 and want to swap with a carryout 5day on the 29th, but i only want to do it if i can increase my oct pay. thanks everyone
