Oh yeah! In fact awhile back we enhanced it so that if you have vacation starting in month A, spilling over into month B, you can slide just the portions in the current month. Knowing that, I bid vacation starting Nov 29, extending to Dec 5. Using vacation slide, I slid the two days in November to Wed/Thursday of Thanksgiving, and the following month I slid the days in December from Dec 23-27. How about that? A Thanksgiving and Christmas vacation, all for the price of a week that originally touched neither!

I was assigned an LAX trip while on ATL reserve today. For my DH out I have the vaunted middle row seat right next to the engines. Travelnet shows a few open seats, but on the check-in web page I am unable to swap seats. Anybody know if there is a specific time where those seats will show open and I can try to swap?

At some point prior to the flight (I think it is around 1 or 2 hours) they lock the seat availability in the app. You will see available seats but it won't let you change to them. Last time that happened to me I went to the gate agent and said that I saw seats available to swap, but the app wouldn't let me do it. She swapped it (to economy comfort) on the spot for me.
Imagine trying to work an oversold flight and assign seats to HK's and such with people changing seat assignments left and right. They'd never get the flight out.
