How much the posted schedule moved

A schedule on the 72-hour board is a plan, not a promise, and on this route the record says how much of a plan. Of the 11 flights posted to NSA Souda Bay's board for NS Rota in the last 120 days, 3 (27 percent) disappeared from the board more than twelve hours before they were due to fly, 0 (0 percent) changed their roll-call time after first posting, and 0 (0 percent) changed their seat count. That is a volatile route. Set a watch and check the morning of.
