This could have ended differently. Looks like a multiple hydraulic failure. If only we had another pump! Wait, isn’t Lil Pump back in Mint? Yes. That’s just the Lil Pump we need to get enough hydraulic pressure to land. Oh wait, he’s not that kind of pump. A tool yes. A pump, no.

Vacation question. I transferred bases in Dec and as a result my 2021 vacation was voided. The only week with availability in 2021 is the week I’m scheduled for training. So I have 2 weeks af vacation but the inability to schedule them. I looked through the contact and it doesn’t address this. I contacted the CPO - twice - and never got a response. If I can’t schedule vacation does it get paid out at the end of the year?

Vacations scheduled after the effective date of a Base trade will be dropped into Open Time when the trade is awarded .

I’ll see if I can find something else in there. But VPTO is yours. They can’t take it. I imagine it’s either paid out at the end of the year or possibly transferred to your PTO bank.

7.B.4.h.v is similar - if you have excess VPTO for a partial week you can opt to be paid out at the end of the year.

Keep on the lookout because the same thing might happen to someone else, and their vacation will be dropped on the Open Time, in your newer Base/Seat. I believe you can create a Flica Alert to be notified of such event.

Can you drop a vacation on top of a trip already assigned? If so, how is that paid? I know if you pick up over a vacation it’s above but what about the other way around? Is it even possible?

Basing this off nothing but I want to say no. If you could, you could stack trips over a 7-14 day period then drop vacation over all those trips and then pick up on top of all those days.

No. Vacation is locked once the planning month starts. So on Feb. 1 you can’t add or drop any vacations for April (CBA 7.B.4.k.iii)
