    I’m hoping for a nice bump day tomorrow. All of my segments are zeroed out already and my other routing options that I could find have been zeroed out. Tomorrow shall be an interesting travel day! Wish it wasn’t a trip to Honolulu

    @Halothane: I hope everything works out for you! I need to be back in PHL by Tuesday morning so I think I may have to decline the bump tomorrow if I cannot find another way to PHL.

    I’ve spent the last half hour searching other options and availability is changing so fast it probably is not worth my time…

    @Matthew: I have seen 9 IDB and 21 VDBs this morning so far while waiting for my connection. I doubt I will take the VDB on my connection as there is no other way for me to get to HNL today. Everything ex-ORD is 0 today including DEN, LAX, and SFO.

    @Halothane: I don’t blame you. Every hub-hub flight that I have observed this morning at SFO has been asking for volunteers. My flight to PHL needed four volunteers!
