I know this has been asked several times so I'll add it once more since I don't want to search. I'm converting 1 Apr to 7ER in NYC. They have apr 1-16th shadowed in my calender for OE and TOE. Can I bid for a line for the rest of the month? Or did that change?

When I was up in NYC and there wasn't an AE for 6 months I would PD my entire month and WS out of ATL (Mon-Thu usually). Didn't seem to be a problem. After finally getting ATL in an AE I kind of wished I had stayed NYC and kept doing it back then because when I came to ATL reserves were being used every single day they were available (ALV was 82).
Thanks in advance to Jesse or anyone who cares to answer.

You should have PBS credit for the shadow period so you should be able to bid a line. Call 1-800-USA-ALPA and ask for scheduling committee, they can give you the definitive answer.

Differences
Maybe someone smarter that me can explain this:
Our leader reported via the Mar 2 code a phone that in Apr our capacity wil be down 1.7%. Never fear, SWA is -3.7%, UAL - 3.4%, and AA -2.2% so we are doing better that most. However these are the facts according to press releases reposted on DLNET.
Airline Traffic Capacity
DAL +2.6 -1.7
USAir +7.9 +5.8
AA +6 +4.7
SWA +3.9 +6.2
UAL +3.4 +5.4
Alaska +9.7 +5.8
Seems he got the fact we are shrinking correct but missed what the rest of the industry is doing. I realize he was predicting April, but I highly doubt every one else will magicall start shrinking.
What am I missing?

Yes you can. But FYI, I was unable to hold a line in Jan or Feb even with 36 hours of training credit in each bid period. Maybe you'll have better luck.

You North guys missed out on the REAL Delta Comercial.
There's even some pictures of L1011's and 727's in this one!
