This document will explain vacation during the SLG process

There are two windows the first is to ask to reduce/add vacation draw - company decision to accept/reject. Then during SLG process you can slide and/or reduce the vacation footprint. You BLG starts with the value of # of vacation days.

In my case I have 10 days next month. If I am awarded a VTO I can only be assigned trips up the the value of 60 hours from vacation plus trips that does not exceed the Max BLG of VTOI value for June that will come out in the FCIF. I can shrink my footprint to zero and get say two 6 CR trips placed anywhere on my calendar and then I can add trips in open time.
