July Reserve Scheduling Alert 

from your NWA-AFA Scheduling and Reserve Committees


Your MEC Reserve and Scheduling Committees have been made aware of an issue with the July SLIC awards.  Several flight attendants holding schedules in June with carry-out to a July Reserve line may be affected.  In these cases, some were awarded Reserve lines with less than the contractually required 12 days off.  Crew Scheduling is aware of this problem.

 

Affected Flight Attendants should contact Crew Scheduling (866-612-0001) no earlier than June 20th and no later than the 27th to receive the additional days off required.  Crew Scheduling has advised THEY will choose replacement day(s) off if Flight Attendants do not contact them by the 27th!  Your NWA-AFA Scheduling Committees are working toward a resolution to prevent future problems of this nature. 

 

Please contact your Local Council if you have additional questions!

 

SCHEDULING AND RESERVE TOWN HALL MEETING FOR JULY

 

Last month’s AFA-initiated Scheduling and Reserve Town Hall Meeting was so well received, we are coordinating another educational forum and Question/Answer Session with AFA MEC Officers, MEC Scheduling Chairs along with management on Tuesday, July 22.  Council 94 - DTW has invited Director of Scheduling, Brian Moreau, for a return visit to share contract implementation changes, PBS updates and everything you wanted to know about Reserve and/or Scheduling but were afraid to ask. 

 

If you missed last month’s meeting or have additional questions, please take advantage of this special opportunity for indepth explanations of scheduling and contract issues.  There will be three sessions, each with a slightly different emphasis: 10:00 a.m. – 12:00 p.m. Open Q and A, 12:30 p.m. – 2:00 p.m. Open Q and A, and 2:00 p.m. – 4:00 p.m. Reserve issues, including SLIC/PBS questions.  More details and location to follow.
