Default Vacation Accrual, etc?

How many weeks of vacation after 20 years? What’s the sick leave policy like? Fatigue policy? ORD DEC Captain reserves getting used everyday?

Thanks!

- 4 weeks vacation after 20 years

- after 5 years of service, sick accrual is 4.0 hours per month. Max accrual is 485 hours.

- fatigue policy, call in fatigued if you're tired. Don't sign the fit for duty before flying. Submit a report within 48 hours of the call. We have a FRMP (fatigue risk management program).​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

​​​​​​​- can't specifically address/confirm if ORD DEC reserves are flying everyday, but generally all DEC reserves are flying most days, at least the junior reserves.​​​​​​​

Thanks for that info. Is there any sort of pickup window for reserves as far as picking up trips?

I heard there is a pickup window—they call it proffering—between 10 am and 2 pm for the next day. Trips are awarded to reserves only in seniority order for the following day once that window closes. Open time is a different system.

you heard right. Unofficial results are usually out 3-4pm, become official 5pm, at which point you call in to confirm via automated system and then it's yours - helps planning commute/activities

in which case you feel good that someone is doing for a couple of extra bucks vs it being included in your reserve guarantee, refer to letter 13-13 B.2.b.i-iii and don't sweat it ;-)

How does it help plan your commute if another pilot can take it from you after you confirmed it?

I was being a bit facetious. I am a big fan of LOA 13-13 and think those that hate it misunderstand it. But the "and then it's yours" had a bit too much finality to it and I couldn't help myself. ;-)

It's final if you're on the turnback list
