So I have a line next month. How do I trade trips? Is this done through whiteslips? I've never held a line before. I was trying to play in ICREW, but it won't let me do anything as a reserve. The October schedules are not released yet. I'm going to want to swap some trips for commutable ones. I'm working weekends so I figure something will be in open time.

I think you have to wait until the 20th to start parking trips.

j/k bout the parking

They won't put the Oct. line awards into DBMS until the 16th or 17th, then you can see what's in open time (or look at the bottom of your wide report and see what's 'open') and then you can load up your best wishes into the PCS page, be sure you click on OCT or you will be doing it for Sept, which, as a reserve, you cannot.

But what you can do today is get familiar with the PCS page, trip parameters, ie. 'no all nighters' etc. so when you do it for real, you'll have some idea of what boxes there are to check.

If you want to swap trips, there is a page for swaps, if you only want to pick up trips, (white slip) there is a separate page for that.

You'll have to shoot yourself in the foot a few times before you learn how to do it right...don't ask me how I know.

Good luck!

Seeing several names that I know bailing out of ATL330 back to DTW330.

This should end up being the junior bid to ATL330. The guys that left are commuters and will bid back in next year IF the trips get better. I doubt the trips will be more than ACC, LOS, DKR and some HNL, but you never know at DAL.

VERRRRRYYY glad I stayed in DTW.
