Time for vacation slide questions?

Do we request the slide after initial awards and before final schedule?
Bid Package says to use the ‘Options’ field in Flica to enter ‘transition options’ & ‘vacation slides’.
The only Options field I can find in my Flica is for account options.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

You do it during initial bid....When you put your lines in order over to the right there is a box for slide....

I had vacation this month, I emailed crew plan within 24 hours of bid awards. They acknowledged my email, and honored the request in the final schedule.

Were you able to drop additional trips after your slide?

It didn't end up touching any additional trips because of the slide. I mainly wanted to protect a specific day, I had training due and didn't want training to place it on that day, which would have just been a normal day off otherwise. I see no reason why crew plan wouldn't have dropped touched trips though.

If the final schedules haven't come out, and you want to slide for May, you might still have time to work that out, but hurry, and don't be surprised if they won't this late in the process.

Thanks EricJ320.
I do not have vac in May, just planning.
Contract reads that Crew Planning must drop touched trips after slide, unless on red days.

Yep^
We gave part of that away by a 70% vote for the LOA.

Seriously? You all just voted to do ground school on your days off in exchange for iPads that are coming anyway and drop your minimum days off from 13 to 11.

That ship has sailed and you launched it.
