1. A pilot may, via DBMS, submit one of the following requests to drop a rotation(s) or
reserve on-call day(s) that begins no earlier than the next day (see Section 23 E.):
a. PD, or
b. APD.
2. Next-day APD requests will be processed (before PD requests) each day, by category, in
seniority order among pilots who have submitted requests by 0700E on such day.
3. Next-day PD requests will be processed each day, by position, in seniority order among
pilots who have submitted requests by 0700E on such day.
Thanks it worked. Whew. Not enough constraints on a ws.

Do unused payback days get liquidated at the end of the vacation year or do they carry over?

Thanks Scoop

If you don't use them in the current year they become earned vacation days for the next year.

NYC 7ER is now going to Hawaii a bunch. Directly and through LAX. That 5:15 really shuffled the flying around. Looks like Atl is now doing the JFK-MEX along with NYC.

What do you mean by "directly"? Is Delta adding NYC to HNL nonstop?

The best place to see what you can do with payback days is explained in detail in the Scheduling Reference Handbook available on the Dalpa website. In good reader on my iPad, the answer is on page 104. Read all the questions and answers for what I said below.

Short answer, they become supplemental days and you bid them with next years vacation. There is a way to use them in the first 3 months of the year but you need to reference the above to see how to do that.

I think we run some holiday specials that time of year. There are a lot of weird flights before and after T-day and Xmas.
