Default Vacation slide FDX

Has anyone slid their vacation more than once. The scenario is, First week of vacation in Mar. Slid it 3 days during Feb conflict window to keep weekend carryover. Now for Mar can I slide it 2 more days to knock out a big trip? Read the contract and it said you can slide it up to 5 days total. Anybody out there run into this?
Thanks in advance

I've tried that and been shot down. The reason given was the vacation has already been moved. don't know if you can convince them to go for the full five days though; may be worth a call to scheduling.

You can only slide once in the initial month.

Thanks I figured it was probably one and done. On a related topic if you have carryover and vacation scheduled a couple days later. If you bid a line with a trip the first week does it get knocked out by carryover conflict or does it come out of the vacation bank. Which one do they process first. Any first hand accounts would be great. I have heard the it should work this way but let me know if its different from CE.

Thanks
Lucky

CIC happens first.

Even if the carryover trip was knocked out by the vacation, any actual conflict with the original footprint of that trip will be removed by CIC, not vacation.
