Sick Leave & Vacation Make Up (Updated 2020)
-
Once the 7-day vacation period is cancelled, Crew Scheduling will add the AVL code to the Flight Attendant’s schedule to replace the vacation days. Flight Attendants will have two options to make up the lost time. They can pick-up a trip(s) either through the Open Time process or through the Trip Request process. They can pick-up trips anytime during the month for VMU. Since all make-up requests are now processed at seniority (7.K), the Flight Attendant wishing to do make-up, must request trips through the normal pick-up process in the applicable folders and if awarded must contact Crew Scheduling to advise they would like to apply Vacation Make-Up for that trip(s). Remember each vacation day carries a credit of 3 hours, so you need to review their schedule to determine how many hours they need to make-up.
-
Once the Flight Attendant made up their hours as noted above (18.M.2), Crew Scheduling will remove the AVL days from their schedule to reflect the make-up was completed. If the Flight Attendant does not pick-up flying, she/he can be assigned only on the AVL days.
ETCH Trade Short -Term - Manually processed folder
Overview
ETCH Trade Short-Term (NEW)
-
ETCH Trade requests that fall inside of 12 hours of the departure date (basically next day operation) will be processed in this folder. When submitting a trade or drop request in this folder you would use the "Submit or View Requests" link. This procedure alerts the Schedulers to your transaction which allows them the time needed to adjust required International documents and or adjust travel and hotel arrangements. Only pairings that fit in this time frame will be processed. There is no advantage of submitting a request that does not meet these short-term trade criteria in this folder since it is manually processed.
-
Please note that ER for ER, Turn for Turn, and Charter for Charter supersedes the Holiday for Holiday trade rules. Example: You could not trade a Turn on December 25th with an ER pairing unless they both have met the hold and have cleared.
