As I have done a lot of VDB this last year into and outta of LBB will give my findings.

On these COExpress flights (EXJET and CHQ operated), the minimum was always 250 to start and I saw them go to $700 and two nights hotel and all meals after Thanksgiving as they couldnt get the person to Lbb till tuesday from Sunday night. I have been lucky in that when leaing LBB I have gone on AA twice to DFW and then onward with about an hour delay in one case and no delay in the other. I did spend the day in the PC in B the monday after Easter for two vochers worth 700 and made it on the last flight out with the help of the agents in the PC.

I wonder if the dollar amount starts are different for stations that are mainline only vs mixed or COEX only? I would think that CO would want the VDB as CO gambles with the fact that people wnt use the vochers. I wonder what the % of unused vouchers are? I am now in OK and fear that my vouchers will dry up in the coming year. Oh to be back in LBB.
