Well, it looks like the smoke has cleared (except for the feeding frenzy later tonight), and all my schedule was wiped, even the R-days not touching my vacation, so they never got 'replaced' in there.

Question Vacation Extension question

I'm trying to drop as many R-days as possible, given the rediculous levels of reserve utilization, and pick up a few trips to cover the difference. I have vacation in NOV, and I'm wondering how that will affect the plan. I read the contract section where it states that I can't pick up trips in the actual vacation footprint, but does that include the extension days as well?

Thanks...

I believe you cannot pick up trips in the part with the actual redline on the schedule

Bama, by sliding (extending) your vacation, you expand your footprint. WARNING,...it will not show up on your calendar! I learned that one the hard way, I had a 60 hour trip at the beginning of the following month dropped due to a trip conflict because I had expanded into a carryover trip and forgot about it. Hope this helps.
