    Violation of CBA §12.C.2-3 [Exchange of Sequences: Trading Procedures]

    February 14, 2017 21:00

    Late this afternoon AFA was made aware of yet another contractual violation that will occur over the next few days in regards to out of domicile pick ups, trades, drops, giveaways. We also have additional information to share with you about trading Recurrent Training dates.

    Currently, AFA and management agree to the following posted schedule:

    Posting of Trips
    All bases: 14th @ 2000 Pacific Time (PT)

    FA-to-FA trading

    • SAN – 15th @ 0900 PT
    • PDX – 15th @ 1000 PT
    • ANC – 15th @ 1100 PT (1000 AKT)
    • LAX – 15th @ 1200 PT
    • SEA – 15th @ 1300 PT

    Open Time trading

    • SAN – 16th @ 0900 PT
    • PDX – 16th @ 1000 PT
    • ANC – 16th @ 1100 PT (1000 AKT)
    • LAX – 16th @ 1200 PT
    • SEA – 17th @ 0900 PT

    Recurrent Training trading

    All bases 18th @ 0900 PT (0800 AKT)

    Out of domicile FA to FA & OT

    18th @ 0900 PT (0800 AKT)

    However, Jeppesen Crew Access (JCA) was programed incorrectly, and beginning today the following schedule will occur:

    Posting of Trips

    February 14th – Already began earlier (prior to 8pm PT) for all bases.

    FA-to-FA trading

    Same as current schedule in “FA-to-FA trading” above.

    Open Time trading

    Same as current schedule in “Open Time trading” above.

    Recurrent Training trading

    Recurrent Training trading will start at the agreed-upon time on the 18th at 0900 PT (0800 AKT). Open Recurrent Training slots are already visible in JCA (the graduation cap icon), but you will not be able to trade into them until the 18th at 0900 PT (0800 AKT).

    Out of domicile FA-to-FA

    Out of domicile Flight Attendant-to-Flight Attendant pick-ups, trades and giveaways will start on February 15th for all bases at the respective start time for Flight Attendant trades in each domicile.

    Example 1: All F/As regardless of where they are based may pick up out of SAN on the 15th starting at 0900 PT.

    Example 2: All F/As may pick up out of SEA on the 15th starting at 1300 PT.

    Out of domicile OT

    Out of domicile Open Time pick-ups, trades and drops will start when Open Time opens for the domicile in which the sequence operates.

    Example: A SEAFA picked up a SAN OOD sequence on the 15th at 0900 PT. S/he must wait until the 16th at 0900 PT to trade that sequence with SAN Open Time.

    In our continuing effort to defend our contract, AFA has filed Grievance 36-99-2-12-17 Violation §12.C.2-3 Trades, Pick-Ups, Drops and Give-Aways on Incorrect Dates.

    Reminder: Change to Trading Timeline in March for April Schedules

    Effective next bid month (March 2017), both Open Time and Flight Attendant-to-Flight Attendant trading begins on the 15th of the month.
