Vacation Pass Question for L-UAL Side?

So I'm a UAL retiree and I never got any of the Interim or Retroactive Vacation Passes the company info says I should have got.
I only received the 8 for 2012.
I have written twice and just sent my third request for info on this but have never heard back from them.
I'm just wondering if you active guys got any of either one of these?
It may just be us retired guys or even an individual thing.

I know you have more important things on your mind right now so any of you that take the time to answer me, I want you to know I appreciate it.
Thanks

I think all UAL active and retired employees got the same thing, because the CAL guys got to keep their balance of family vacation passes accrued and I think they can accrue up to like 60 family vacation passes. I think 8 of the vacation passes expire for us June 2012.

The vacation pass thing is a joke - you go to the islands or international and everybody is on a vacation pass and seniority/longevity rules. This whole system is unnecessarily complicated for no reason.

For retired guys RUPA is still a good source of info. I think they have a BB set up and print a monthly magazine-to become a member it use to be 25.00. They do a good job of keeping the retired guys informed. Do a goggle search for information. Not trying to pass you off, but I know over the years RUPA has been a good organization.

Hey thanks OU
I couldn't agree more, it is a joke.
So unfortunately I have to be interested in these Vac passes I was supposed to have received.
I did check my epass account and all I have is 8 with a 2016 expiration.
I know they put out so much information it's hard to sift through.
But in that info it does say that l-ual employees would be issued an additional 8 retroactive vac passes with a 2015 expiration date because we didn't get the ones issued on Jan 1 2011.
This is different than the interim passes we got with a PSS expiration which was extended to June.
I never got either one of these and was wondering if any of you active guys got them.
I'll look into RUPA.
Again Thanks

Outsider - I actually did a search and found the RUPA(Retired United Pilots Association) site. To be honest the site is better that I thought it would be coming from a bunch of old guys.:) I learned a lot from these same guys and give thanks for what they did for all United Pilots.

Not selling it, but all United pilots, retired and active can join for $25.00 a year. It's not a political organization and I think the CAL guys can join as well. It would show a lot of support for all United Pilots if we all joined.

If you have any questions, I'm sure somebody on the BB will have an opinion or good answer for you - they always have. RUPA is a good organization.
