On a side note, the flights I've been working have been packed. 93%+ load factors.

Anyone try to book a jumpseat this morning? I just tried to book one to work for Tuesday the 4th, and both the computer and the VRU say I'm outside the window?

The NBA wants to play ball in Europe over the summer. The charter would run similar to NWA's Asia operation: DH over, fly, DH back.
The short call question is in regards to the legalities of consecutive short call assignments. Let's say you are on SC today until 10 PM. At 3 PM skeds assigns you another SC tomorrow AM. You are not released; you must still sit out SC until 10 PM. Can you be considered legally rested when you are technically on duty, even though they didn't use you? Questions are being raised about this practice.

Thanks Denny,
Yeah I'll give that a try tomorrow morning if it's still not working. Not a big deal, there are still 5 open on the flight with no nonrevs or jumpseaters. I'm not that excited, just wondering.
