"Not sure if I read this correctly on the open board flights....but here goes. I completed an open board flight yesterday from Shanghai to Chicago......for some reason I have another open board flight assigned to me for the AA region of Shanghai to Dubai? I never requested this flight, and also it is an EK flight, does this mean I have to fly and EK Cargo 747 or is this operated by the Polar fleet? Similarly with QF flights. I didn't request this route, and will be selecting another one for today. I was hoping to head back from Chicago to the AA region, instead of dead heading."

"When we updated the schedules for April, some of the open board flights got switched around. That is why Michel asked everyone to make a note of what they have signed up to fly. I have made changes to the code so that this issue will not happen when we move to the new site but that is still a little ways off..."

You're OK. The new schedule was loaded yesterday and overwrote the existing one and consequently overwrites the open board too. It's a flaw in the current system which will be fixed when we launch the new site. Don't worry about the completed flight. Just pick any available flight to return to AA."
