Log onto DLnet and there is an explanation of what happened and what was done to fix it. Now the screw up is in the secondary weeks available! It shows me in a totally different category!

No big deal if they are not what you want. Take your awarded vacation, call in sick for the time you really want off and voila a win win situation. 3,2,1.....que pineapple guy:D

Fair enough. They can rerun it and give any affected pilot a choice between the first award and the second and then deal with the staffing consequences their mistake caused. The difference is that on the PBS runs, there is a disclaimer that awards aren't final until posted in DBMS. Not so in this case. I'll whine as loud as I want. I care far less about how fast the awards come out than I do about the accuracy of the results. Even the prehistoric IT that Delta clings to is no excuse for that kind of sloppiness.

I'm glad you are still on this forum. I was not wanting to lose your perspective.

+1 and I hope he doesn't give up on the "other" forum. (As tempting as it may be.)

I gave up on the other forum a long time ago. I rarely go there, but did a day or two ago.

In my case, I kept the original award.

Before we get too whiny about re-running or not re-running... has anyone actually been warded a lower choice the second time around?

Ok... So my award didn't change and I still have my 40th some odd choice. There are plenty of weeks available on secondary for my first choice of vacation. Why didn't I get it as my primary?

Mine was the same. First time I haven't gotten Thanksgiving off in awhile. Did get the anniversary off though, so my wife is happy. Vegas here we come.

I got the same award, but only 1 week instead of 2. I would have preferred to have 2. I forgot to bid though so I can't complain.

If you need more vacation time just bid the "9". On second thought just stay away ;)
