This is pilot asking for slot improvement information.
At LIMC recently, about 40 minutes prior to flight planned take-off time, not EOBT, (another issue with our service provider, used proposed Take-off, not EOBT) we were ready and asked for a slot improvement. LIMC Delivery says, they will need to cancel flight plan and re-enter a new one for a slot improvement. Looking at the time and possible bad things happening with cancelled FPL, decided to wait it out.
Question: Is this the normal way to go about a slot improvement? Need to be refreshed on REA message and Slot improvement Message, I know there is difference but can't recall, also. I did try to "search" this forum, BTW.
