FV is great if you need cash now and aren't going to be bidding for pay purposes later. Convert it and cash it out. I did it during Covid since we weren't getting more than book value for the vacation weeks anyway and you could drop all the flying you wanted to.
FV sucks if you are bidding a line for pay or need time off during normal times.
If you plan on quitting, absolutely convert any vacation days you have to FV and cash it out.

I’m back on rsv so every VA week is worth 26.25. Floater just lets you swap a crap week for a potentially good one. If it pays the same…why the hell not? There are limits on QOL drops, etc you gotta watch out for though….
