All of the coordinates posted are mint cities. Could just be something within those airports like a lounge or something.

No F’ing way this is on the up and up. I honestly can’t believe this sh!t forsaken system has been going on for so long.
wrong. No one is using anything. I have no “BOT” but have beat people multiple times (the “bot” guys) to trips. Find the ways to do it, there is multiple ways to reduce your transaction time by a second or two (the time it takes you to click add/submit request).

Or you could simply be happy that you’re not one of the people who sits on their computer all day staring at Flica.

I think we have beaten the bot thing to a pulp. I don’t have a bot and have beaten the guys who always get trips, and I believe management has been open to the fact that there aren’t bots. I’m not smart and figured out ways to make my advantage better if I feel like it. If you got a Flica alert it’s gone already because someone’s watching it. If the pairing was an ADHOC the Flica alert is usually delayed 3-5 minute. But if someone just drops it, it’s usually an alert right away. But that being said, there is a person who already got it. If you’re willing to sit on Flica for hours on end like some people do. I bet you’ll get something.

I agree. Don’t hate the player, hate the game. Same experience for me. When I really want to pick up open-time, I can beat out the usual suspects. When I get lazy and wait for the alert on my phone, I lose. It gets tiresome hearing about bots without any evidence to prove it.

I don't believe there are bots, either.
If you want trips, you have to put in the work. I've picked up flying this month and last.
I've found ways to pull the trigger as fast as possible. YMMV.
Either way, if you want a trip, be prepared to sit in FLICA all day. That may not be worth it to you.

I bet if people who fly with those people who are working all the time and asked how they do it they may share some tips. But also. How many days off do people get now? Like 20? So yah there is plenty of time to watch Flica. Its honestly not rocket science.
