Gotcha.
So if I bid reserve in March, how are the X days pro-rated? Seems like this may be a workaround to get more time off if you don’t mind going lower on pay in one or both months? Say I choose to take the pay/credit in January. Now those vacation days would be worth less in March. Do we still enter the X day table in the same row regardless of the value of the days? |
So in this example if you took 24.5 hours from the vacation bank (7 days worth) to cover a IVD trip, would those 7 vac days in March still exist with no credit time attached to them? In other words would there be 7 days blocked of on your schedule for vacation with no opportunity for bidding a trip during that period? If so, that’s a real downside to using vac bank hours for a IVD trip drop.

Ok that makes sense. So in theory if you IVD a 4 day trip with 4 IVD days, then request through crew scheduling to actually use exactly 24.5 vac bank hours to cover it (versus the normal 3.5x4=14 hrs through regular IVD days) you would have 3 vac days left in the donor month with no credit attached to them. Is that right?

To put it simply,
IVD usage reduces the number of days of vacation that you have VACB usage reduces the number of hours of vacation that you have For me personally, time off is more important than pay so I use a few VACB days a year instead of IVD's. |

ummmm, you do realize you can buy additional days of vacation with your bank and use them as an IVD.

Yes but then I’m negative on my bank. I bid reserve and never have the ability to refill it.
