I've used passrider.com for this info. The main page is cluttered, the top right is the area to use, enter the info and it shows the flights on another tab/page. Pick "Nonstop" to get what I think you're looking for. It looks like it goes out to the end of the next month for schedules. It does show SWA and USAir schedules - but doesn't show loads for anyone.

Hey guys
Another PBS question. In Vacation Slide does the + days move everything to the right, and - days move the days up earlier?
Thanks!

Yes, I unfortunately spent over 45 minutes on hold with PBS bid assistance this morning to ask this question and during that time I found the example that I was looking for that explained it in detail.

Also, you can do a range of number of days to slide, say you want it to slide 7 days, but if it won't do that, then at least 4 days, you use the drop down for "Range" and put 4 to 7. It will try to slide it the maximum days first, then one less day, all the way back to your minimum days.
I put the slide condition in first, for 3 to 5 days, and immediately after that I put "Avoid Dec. 25" just in case it doesn't slide it that far.
How well it works for you depends on two things; your relative seniority in category, and the staffing level in your category. If you are junior in a tight category, you may not get it to slide, especially over a holiday. I'm right at 50% in a well staffed category and it has worked for me last Thanksgiving and a year ago at Christmas too. I guess all the guys senior to me can hold those days off anyway so they bid summer vacations!

Hey New, yeah, I got it and just tried to go on an answer it but with this new APC format, I can't get in to my PM's. I don't know if its a Firefox thing or not. I'll try and open it with IE.

It's not just Firefox, I can't get into my PM's using Internet explorer either.
Do these web guys get trained DALPA (lack of) Communications?

Commuter help-- looking up future flight schedules for all airlines.
I used to use eskyguide.com which was great because they were very accurate. They just closed the doors of that website it seems.
I need a good website that just provides airline schedule info for all airlines between city pairs, so I can look at least 1.8 mo out and plan my commutes, figure out what my earliest report each day is, etc.
--I don't want a "ticket buying" website with price comparisons etc., just the schedules.
-- would like to be able to filter for non-stop flights, show all flights on one page vs. clicking to 2nd page, and most important... be accurate.
I'm on Quicktrip.com now, who are just OK. They make you click to 2nd page which makes end of day lookups a pain; and in the past I found they weren't super accurate, especially on the critical days where sched changes oddly like Thanksgiving.
OAG.com used to be good, now they want $700 a year or somesuch.
FlightTrack doesn't give sched info for beyond 3 or 4 days.
Anyone have something they use that works well?
Thanks!
