Supplemental vacation days
 
So apparently the company has unilaterally turned off our ability to purchase supplemental vacation days in the following vacation year. Anyone think this is an accident? Or is the latest plain language violation we will have to grieve, and subsequently watch an arbitrator give away more of our contract to the company.

that seems to be the fix for days already purchased, but I don’t think that works for purchasing new days. Am I misunderstanding?

In February, icrew function allowed pilots to purchase days, as of today it is not letting pilots purchase days.

It just let me purchase 5 days. However, it did not allow me to place them with my awarded vacation. This place is infuriating at times.

After further review, the purchase did not go through. I received a message “unavailable now. Try again next month”

Wow, really! I just bought some for this year last month. I used the Crew Resources SmartSheet and after 3-4 days they placed them where I asked. Hopefully it's just an IT glitch.

So I did it in the Feb bid period, but what I did was..

1. Purchase days via bank on icrew
2. Submit a smart sheet to place the days where I wanted them

id guess they are trying to get their new app to work to place the days??? 6-7, Delta IT AFU again.
