I get it, most airlines don’t even allow drops like our language does, but when one of our main selling points is unusable that is a problem.

For reference the ORD FO has been >50% green all month. I’ve dropped two trips this month and two last month.

Fair enough that it is base dependent which is why I included it. Glad to hear at least some are getting use out of it.

Dallas is red most of the month and magically turns green when you’re inside the 2 day window where you can’t swap or drop.
