I agree, just looking at the past few days of reserve assignments and opentime being more scarce than rain in the Atacama, LCR should be a no brainer.

LCL is a miserable form of torture, but what you’re saying is true. I actually bid for it for next month. There is just no way a LCL actually touches a plane.

It’s crazy that there are more reserves in Boston today than total number of

Strange times indeed. Stranger though given the circumstances would be 100 flights operating.

I honestly don't think it matters if you bid SCR or LCR. Trips that are dropping in open time are gone within seconds. They dropped a bunch of ferry flights to the desert yesterday, and all the trips were picked up within a minute.

none were jfk, so that could be a factor
