It will only work if they have adequate reserve coverage, which I believe is higher than normal over a holiday, but if they do have the coverage, you can drop a trip over Xmas. You will lose the time, just like any personal drop, but you cannot white slip a trip that touches any of the days you APD'd. You do not have to use all the APD days, just one will cause the entire trip to drop, then you can white slip on the other days.
Ex: If you have say, a 4 day that starts on the 24th, you can use just ONE day of APD, the 24th, which will drop the entire trip, then you can white slip something on the 25th (late sign in) or 26th to make up the time.
Clear as mud?

Not that I agree or not with Purple's views, but your comment is a bit worn out. About the same as telling me I should run for POTUS if I don't like the current guy. How many outsiders EVER get elected to these positions?

You can APD during those times, but it has a higher possibility of rejection then other times. I did an APD during Labor Day Weekend and it was approved, you just need reserve coverage at 25% or higher.

Looks like the B747-400 lie-flat mod is complete: Delta Air Lines Completes Full Flat-bed Installations on Boeing 747-400 Aircraft - Nov 15, 2012
Slowly but surely we're getting the fleet done. Hopefully that will keep increasing the number of pilots on the airplane - maybe that's why there was the additional crews on the latest AE.

His time as "just a regular line guy" sure was short. I guess he couldn't take the pay cut.
