Ah, so purples are trips that did not meet my criteria but were needed to fill my bid? The 2 purple trips meet all the filters except the first one. Overall I'm pretty happy with the award. No out of pocket hotels next month!

I don't understand "unstacked" fully. I'd love to see a layman's explanation of it. I read all about it in the PBS guide but still don't grasp it. I have two purple trips as well. The first one matches all my criteria. The second one matches all but start time > 1359. But I will trade that one out here at noon - and even if not it's doable. Everything else matches what I asked for. Exactly. The "bad" news since I'm new is that it means we are really really short of pilots with no reserve pool at all.

It’s called unstacking because in the grid view of pairings that need to be covered, there is a big vertical “stack” of trips over Christmas.

Unstacking tries to follow what you want, but in the end it will give you what has to be flown. I'm glad it worked out for you!

Given what they are doing to people’s schedules with unstacking, they shouldn’t be surprised.
