From: "if it's got wings, I can crash it".
Here is what the General Release letter says.
IN CONSIDERATION of the mutual promises extended in the Voluntary 55-Point Retirement or Early-Out Programs, I, ________________, on behalf of myself, my heirs, executors, successors, and assigns, hereby release (deleted), Inc. as well as all of it's owners, affiliates, subsidiaries, and divisions and it's directors, executives, managers, and employees [collectively, "(deleted)"], from all claims [except my claim for unemployment compensation benefits], debts, demands, rights, actions, causes of action, suits, contracts, agreements, damages, whatsoever of every nature, whether known or unknown, against (deleted) including any relating to or arising from my employment with (deleted) or the circumstances giving rise to the termination of my employment from (deleted) [hereafter "Claims"].
How do you read that paragraph?

I would think that after working until April and with the possibility of taking the vacation before then, that they should have to pay it to you. You have earned it at that point. Now leaving Jan 1st and expecting it would be different, but that isn't what we are talking about.
Upon separation in April 2009 you will have whatever unused 2009 vacation credits and 3 months worth of 2010 vacation credit to be paid out.
A 5th year guy who takes the buyout and doesn't take vacation in Jan-April will get 50 hours of vacation pay (40 hours earned in 2008 and 10 hours earned in Jan-March 2009)

80 hrs x (12 months / 52 weeks) = 18.46 hours per week.
The memo also states that the payout will be based on the pay rate at time of separation, and the pilot payscale bumps up on March 2nd.

I am wondering if the company will actually work with you on a separation date, or if they will just tell you when your last day will be?
Does anyone know if we take this separation package and we have recently given out buddy passes, if those tickets will still be good, or if they become void as of the separation date?
So as a 5 year FO leaving under this plan would I travel around on S3B priority at 5 years of seniority for the next five years, or would it be S3B priority and a seniority date of your separation date?
I know most of this stuff will probably be answered in one of the upcoming meetings, just thought I would see what you guys think.
I am planning on leaving, so hopefully one of you guys on the street will be back on the property sooner than later.
