Also vacation drops do not come from the current year’s vacation. They come from the following year and from DEC-APR, they actually from the year after next. So a vacation drop now would come out of may26-Apr27 vacation year.

Premerger LUAL contract if you dropped a 3 day trip you got the full pay for the trip and it only cost you 3 days of vacation. our vacation system is a complete ripoff today.

What are Delta and American’s vacation system rules? That would be a better comparison vs a contract from 15 years ago.
