Is the vacation award right now in ccs accurate or inaccurate? I had one bid group that awarded nothing. 1 of the weeks had 9 people junior and another week had 13 people junior to me that got those weeks.

Last MEC blastmail said they scrapped the software program they were using and started over. I would expect another blastmail when an accurate award is published.

I have 19 days as a result of switching to new system from October to February; however I was told that I can not bid 14 day, I can only bid 7 or 21, to cover all 19 days; otherwise my bid will fail. I was awarded my original 14 days despite of what CPO has told me with the remaining of 5 days available for bidding. But I just do not see the logic in what CPO told me. CPO claims that my vacation bid must include only 7 or 21 bid groups, so I can not have reminder of anything that can not be divided by 7; however, 19 can not divide by 7 anyway I play this. So I asked them again, why not bid combination of 14 and 7, since if I bid 21, computer will assign 19 anyway, just like bidding 7 for the reminder of 5, computer will assign 5? So CPO got really confused and told me they'll get back to me. :-)
Like I said before, f...ing joke this place is. It's run like a start up airline not legacy.

They didn't scrapped it, they are working on two new alternatives concurrently to existing one.

So secondary vacation bid is open, and now with 5 days remaining in my pool of vacation days for 2014 I show no days available to bid.
Since it take the whole first quarter of 2014 to bid for current year's vacation; can we start bidding for 2015 and 2016 vacation NOW!

Jetlink this is crap. I wanted to do the 7/7/5 but was told I couldn't due that and that is why my 2nd bid group failed. In my second bid group I was bidding for 7days but I had to put in 14 if I wanted to be awarded anything. I was told it had to be broken up 7/12. It is in the ccs vacation help guide, but I guess I didn't read carefully enough. I'm glad you were able to get it though.
