They could try to set up buddy swaps. And basically trade schedules. That is if both are line holders. Not sure how that would work if they are on reserves.

Because it's a SENIORITY based system, being able to swap positions/bases would NOT be allowed.

You can't swap trips out of base.

That definitely stinks. To minimize his commute, I would recommend he drop as much as he can and pick up out of base white slips and out of base green slips. Best of luck.

Good Point. I should have remembered my 2nd Grade English teacher's warning - There is an exception to every rule...

They did not backfill on this bid. Even with the reduction in flying I suspect there will be slots on the next bid.

Fingers crossed. Even though it would be reserve forever it'd be reserve at home! Can you white slip out of base?

Yes but white slips are for line holders.
