2. Advance Volunteer Assignment (AVA) Submission Approvals and Compensation
Section 25.N.4.a. (p. 347) provides that “AVA shall be available and assigned to all eligible pilots beginning 7 days prior to showtime for that assignment, based on the reserve forecast.”
a. The parties agree that during the period referenced in Paragraph 1.a. above, all AVA
submissions shall be deemed to be within the acceptable limits of the reserve forecast model
(and thereby approved); and
b. During other times of the year (subject to 1.b. & c.), AVA submissions for Base Hotel Standbys
(BHS-RS or otherwise) shall be deemed to be within the acceptable limits of the reserve forecast
model (and thereby approved).
I sure didn't. Thank you for the information.
