Quicktrade update the info on it’s alert page. Nothing really new except that the company is stonewalling them.

I’ve been living it for a year and a half. The only difference now is flying will be rare.

That's a big difference. Crashpads will be full and you'll be out of commuter hotels in the first sequence.

looking at the OT in the past few days at least for the 145, nothing worth getting out of bed for and risking getting the virus.
Joke’s on them for now. I don’t think I’d be using Quicktrade anyway other than for sending hotel rf’s which is very easy to do anyway.

From what I can tell you won’t even be able to trade above guarantee when ATTO opens up.

Trip trading next month will just be trading into less deadheads and shorter sits in domicile. I don't see how you could trade above 72 hours.

For the most part, I agree. There was a lot of stuff going on right up until they cut off quicktrade, probably made their days much busier than normal with RF requests so they cut off quicktrade. But as far as I can tell, there's been very little new stuff more than a couple days out... and OT within a couple days, that's done with a phone call, not RFs. I don't know if the joke's on them or not though. They now have a lot fewer RF requests and probably think cutting off quicktrade is the reason.

This, of course, assumes they are not hiding OT altogether.

There's quite a bit of good OT open on the 175 in DFW. I don't think they are hiding it.
They have more work right now sorting the RF messages, because a bunch of them are not correctly filled. Same with hotel requests. QT makes CS's job easier.
The online OT request form works really well. They are not saving any money with QT closure. The damage was already done.

Does anyone know if this is also going to shutdown eagle quickbid? I noticed earlier they haven’t updated the month yet.
