"CS: At or below minimum reserve levels for DDMM"

This is an unacceptable message. Especially when I am trying to cover more flying. Granted, I might try trade a POS 4-day+1 day for an efficient 4-day and gain a day off, but I am also covering more flying in that efficient 4-day. You're lack of reserve coverage is a problem and SOME schedulers lack of common sense is infuriating.

Where in the world are you finding that message? We have almost 100% reserve coverage this month... At least out in IAD...

I've dealt with that before.

It does make sense however, because they'd have to burn a reserve for your extra day off. Your crappy 4 day still has to be flown by someone else, then another person as well.

Try again tomorrow or the next day. Reserve coverage changes day by day. They may be at 16% today, then someone picks something up, and now it's 19%

[sarcasm]Bah! Your logic is useless to my argument, therefore I reject it and substitute my own. But whatever, I didn't even want that extra day off anyway.[/sarcasm]

I'll keep trying.

I don't want to believe your lies But I'm still cool with being STL-based. Or IAH-based when that happens.
