Vacation footprint question
Hola,
I have two separate vacation slots, one 8 day which overlaps a 7 day slot by one day. I bid VTO because I want to get paid for 15 days. My question is, can I slide them on top of eachother, reducing the footprint, but still get paid for the 15 days?
Alternatively, should I deconflict them to ensure I do get 15 days of credit?
Thanks in advance.

once the SWW opens you can reduce your footprint to 0...but that doesn’t mean you’ll be able to request trips during the window.
Merely minimizes/eliminates the Red Bar of Death for open time pickups.
You’re BLG will be 90 CHs

I shrank my footprint to zero and requested and was awarded a trip on my secondary where my footprint used to be.

Not sure shrinking the footprint would allow adding trips during the VTO window.
But would allow M/U trips once open time is released

No Rat, you can’t double dip. But if you have say, 42 hours of vacation, you can shrink your footprint to zero and be awarded secondary trips to build you up to BLG that fall inside the former vacation footprint you shrank.
