Default Bidding VTO with vacation

I have 15 days of vacation in April. If I bid a VTO will I get the 90 hrs of pay even though it is a four week month? Will it give me the whole month off? I know I can bid reserve and get the whole month off but then will only get RLG for pay.

I don't know the date of you question but if u bid VTO with vacation and get some reserve u won't have any leveling. If you bid Reserve your vacation counts towards leveling.

I thought the latest CBA changed that?

7.G.2 has no verbiage like 7.G.3.d.vii
I would say no, it wasn't fixed. Flew with a Captain that complained about it ; happened to him last month.

Machz990, I was awarded a VTO, any tricks for getting the 90 hrs pay when the VTO window opens? I have 15 days of vacation and made sure they did not overlap.

Thanks

You don't have to do anything, yet.

Eventually we'll get more control of vacation during VTOs, but status quo for a few more months.

VTO vacation pay = 6 CHs per day of Vacation.

What you could do, if your vacation bank is less than 90 hours is reduce your vacation to zero out the bank during the conflict window...or, if bank goes negative could choose a MUV trip during the view/add window.
