5-days are a legacy NW fleet holdover. The commuters say they want them, a few take them, but most trickle to the bottom and are covered by the junior guys that don't want them. I think a strongly worded letter with lots of all caps and misspelled words is in order. 
I'd love to hang with you and BiigD, but like a bug to a bright light, I... must...stay....in...Mecca! My first wife really likes it there and so do I.

quick hit print, then never check again! Fly dat 7 day Asia!
I did very well for Nov... tried a new scheme, threw in the uber-complicated vacation shift else next group... days off else next group...if Thanksgiving not off then gimme these goodies. Gimme dem goodies, and some of dat goodness too, and ALLLL of that, else next group... what, next group was Award Trips? W T F?? What happened to all my goodies?
They unstacked/coveraged up to #45 lineholder of 75 in my cat, mostly covering 30 Nov for some odd reason. Three times as many coverage awards for 30 Nov as 28 Nov. Guess folks didn't want that Saturday carry-out trip this month! Good news is that I suspected as much, and asked for the best of the 30 Nov trips, and so my coverage award gave me Thanksgiving off, while many above got 4 day trips over thanksgiving due to not specifying coverage trip desires below a "prefer off 27-30 Nov". "You don't care? well then here's a nice 4 day over Thanksgiving I just shuffled up for you!"
