Kru,
I would never attempt to answer that question as it's over my head. Were I in your shoes, my first call would be to your council's R&I guy. I am confident that if he can't answer your question, he will be able to direct you to someone who will. Just another benefit that union membership gets all of us. Contractual gains and nuance often don't mean a thing and are overlooked until you're the recipient. (For you dimbulbs, it's not the answered call, it's the language on the page that prompts the call). Sorry to hear that you've been rolled into the hangar. Unless of course...well, let's leave it at that. Hurry back? Or, don't. ;) Enjoy your retirement. |

I'm out on sick list and have 42 days vacation coming up in January. I will not be returning to work becau as I will hit the magic age shortly after my vacation . Is there anyway I can sell the vacation back to the company (which will go to RHA) and remain on sick list so I won't leave any sick list on the books when I am mandatorily retired.

"You are receiving this notice because you may be eligible to make a post-tax contribution to the United Airlines Pilot Retirement Account Plan (“PRAP”) for the 2017 plan year, which ends December 31, 2017. Post-tax contributions can be made after you have made the maximum pre-tax and/or Roth 401(k) deferral contribution for 2017 ($18,000 if you are under age 50, plus an additional $6,000 if you are age 50 or older in 2017). Contributions made on your behalf will also be considered in the calculation" |
This is last year's letter. Came out 12/8. I would think this year's would be out very soon.

Not a bad stipulation for such an amazing program. Originally an executive perk, the VEBA can be used for all sorts of things including Medicare and health insurance premiums, items typically associated with a FSA, massages, medical travel (think buying tickets to see your doctor in Florida) and more.
I have a friend who's dad was an executive with a VEBA and he told me about all the things he purchased with it. It's not just for copays, folks! It's a very flexible benefit and the more I learn about it the more I like it. Thanks |

General Ripper,
Thanks for that. |

Any chance you could provide a link or post something that spells out what is allowed using VEBA money? I'm getting way more than I'd like to in my account but was under the false impression that it was strictly for deductibles and/or medical bills.
Thanks See the below link: https://www.selectaccount.com/wp-con...pense-List.pdf According to that list, you can use it to pay for personal training fees if your doctor writes a letter of medical necessity. Much like a sick note, it would not be hard to get that letter. |
Just received the email tonight.
