Just be careful with bidding make-up vacation trips if you are one of those guys who dumps a big trip and goes into MUV to get a better trip...

MUV trips are 'herpes' trips -- you can't drop them, trade them, etc... they are with you forever...

I love the analogy and quite accurate, but in this case, getting sick is the only thing that can make you all better and get rid of your herpes

that's how guys w/ 15 day blocks straddling the bid months expand left & right to knock out two complete bid months of flying

virtually no changes to Vacation in CBA 2015, so what worked in the past will work now. Only big change is VTO vacations more user friendly
I don't have the agreement in front of me. Is VTO and vacation pick your hours phase 3 or 4 implementation? I don't think it's in effect now?

A look at the status shows it's on schedule, which I think means it's still pending.

Will be nice when you can knock out 12 days of the VTO month with a 7 day vacation period (bank permitting of course)
