What happens to Payback days earned on Reserve, by flying Green slips, if they carry in to your next month of flying as a Schedule holder?

I think we will meet expectations, maybe beat estimates by a couple of cents per share, thanks to all the fuel we saved over Christmas.

When are the earnings announced? I know the conf. Call is at 10ET but are earnings announced before that?

He was asking about picking up a trip on other days he had off "earlier in the month" I thought.

Payback days at the end of a month of reserve green slipping become supplemental days ("SUP"). You can look up in the contract what you can do with them but a couple of them are, with the concurrence of scheduling, you can take them anytime. Or, at the end of the year, they are added to whichever vacation you choose.
