Vacation Vacation Vacation
Max annual vacation at:
FedEx 216 hours UPS 175 hours Alaska 162 hours SWA--Southwest has trips touching vacation. In other words, Any trip that touches your vacation is paid in full. Quality of life was at the top of our surveys. Since our bankruptcy conessions, we have all flown countless extra days to save the company. OUR CONESSIONS ARE NO LONGER NEEDED Delta current max 113:30 hours. United 136:30 hours. Note: This is bankruptcy vacation at United. The will open negotiations soon and easily match or exceed the Alaska vacation, IMO. Imagine your annual schedule with this amount of vacation. Vacation is quality of life and in the rejected TA the shadow MEC completely ignored our desires for improved quality of life. We have a great leader. He wants to hear your input. Take the time to stress quality of life. |
Agreed. Furthermore, any compromise from our sick time should be converted to vacation. That will help management predict how many people will be "calling in" to use it! No harassment or Dr. note required.

We absolutely need more vacation, and it needs to be an increased vacation day, pay and credit, to get the hours we should be at, at least for line construction (preferably for trip pick ups too but at least for line construction). We need that long before we need another week of anemic vacation that only a few pilots will get for a few years netting around 4 days off for each "week" of vacation.

dalpa destroyed the value of vacation for this pilot group when they 'monetized' it via the vacation sell back.

Wow, I had no idea our vacations sucked so bad compared to everyone else. I'm no longer disappointed, I'm insulted. Not only is my backpack off, I feel like burning it. The Co has a long way to go to turn this around.

Our vacation table is a complete disgrace and my top priority right behind scope.
1. 6 weeks at 20 years, 5 weeks at 15 years, 4 weeks at 10 years 2. Pay 5:15/day I'd take this over pay rate increases any day--do the math. Current tables are a sham. Adding 100 hours/year is roughly a 10% raise. Pay rates aren't everything and we are behind our peers. |

Seriously though, you've illustrated one of the biggest wounds DALPA has inflicted upon us. Specifically, how they've withheld just how far we are behind in so many sections of our contract. Carl |
