If I’m trying to drop a turn tomorrow what’s my best bet, calling the next day desk now. Or calling CS(or Swaps n drops) in the morning?

Call the daily desk a few minutes (some say ten) after it opens and roll the dice.

You can also try posting for an uncredited drop through quicktrade. Maybe offer some extra coin to bribe someone to take it from you.

On the topic of composite lines. Is there a way to share your preferences with scheduling? Like id like 6 day hi credit trips to minimize commuting? Or I’d like 15 days off? 😂 Asking for a friend.

Typically the more general you keep your preferences the more likely you’ll get what you want, although I’ve known of people to pick their sequences from open time and get it. Once they build your flying they’ll plug in rsv days to get you down to 11 days off.

Of course this is based on the last time I had a composite line, in 2012, so things may have changed.
