Default Line holder ?'s

in the event I get a move-up line for Nov or a hard line for Dec, I wanted to throw out a few questions.
I know as a reservist we can use "bad day, worse day" to move a reserve day even if it is in the red. Can you do the same thing with a line/trip?
If you had a trip where the grid is in the black, I know you can't drop it; what about moving it?

Basically, the only reason I would bid a move-up line or hard line is to have more days at home and still have flexibility. I don't care about picking up more trips. As a reservist I like the ability to move reserve days around easily (grid permitting of course).

I'm a Mass-hole now, but I'd recommend taking the Chelsea pass as a newhire on reserve. Once you hold a line it might be easier to take one of the Logan Express busses. The bus is nice when you finish a red-eye and want a little snooze on the way home!

Thanks! Had a good chat with a recruiter a week ago and hoping to hear something soon. I've got family in the are area and plan to relocate.

Fingers crossed.

How does parking work at EWR and LGA? Is there DHD pay to begin the trip or is it just considered a NYC base? Thanks!

Same rules apply as a lineholder. If you're trying to drop/swap a trip the grid has to be green, or you can do a trade if the staffing is worse on the day your swapping into.
