Vacation Shift
Per the CBA we can "shift" our vacation week +/- 3 days post bid award. Has anybody used this option recently with any success? I ask because it appears as though CS can deny the request based upon "reserve availability." I've got vacation coming up here in a few months and am just trying to figure out whether or not I can count on using the "shift" language in order to slide my vacation into a trip drop.

To my understanding they can't deny it if it doesn't create a new trip drop. If it DOES create one, then.... I honestly don't know, never done it that way. I successfully slid my vacation +1 day last month to save hours on a potential drop (it would be dropped regardless due to tx2) and use my hours for float. So, in this case, it worked for me. Good luck!

They can and did deny my vacation slide this month. Slide would have resulted in dropping a 4 day on 7th. Coverage was green before and after initial line improvement window. E-mailed crew planning many times, left voice mails.... no response...😤😤😤 scheduling union guy... no help whatsoever....
