Not happy with my June Schedule. I believe I can drop all my trips and just work the open boards and hope for the best. Is this true, and if so, how doI do it?

Go to PCS and request to Personal Drop your trips. Also post them on the Swap Board. On the Swap Board pilots can pick up your trips without regards to the white slip limits. (Hence how "trip parking" originated.)

This is true. You can then put in generic whiteslips on the days you want to work. You will get trips before the reserves. I would recommend putting in qualifiers for 3 days and 4 days. Those very rarely go to whiteslips, but if you dropped your whole schedule, you will have room for them. I would not recommend doing this unless you live in base and can go to work on fairly short notice.

I had problems yesterday. I went through the password retrieval process, entered the exact same password, and it worked fine. :confused:

Could they be cheaper new than used though?

There are no additional gates available in SEA. Expansion there would be nearly impossible with the gate issue and other constraints.

I know I was kidding. Plus there is no money in narrowbody flying on the west coast, clearly.*
