SEA SCHEDULING COMMITTEE REPORT
LEC Chair, Martin Vance and LEC Vice Chair, Rita Tillou
We are offering additional training classes in Crew Access beginning May 1, 2017. We encourage FAs to attend who may need a little more help understanding Crew Access. Topics that could benefit FAs attending class would include: Setting up Personal Filters, Text Alerts, How to post for grab, Direct Trade, and SIP/SPLIT trips. Also, we will cover what options are in your Reports and how to utilize them for best benefit.
Additional benefit for FAs this time are that classes are offered BOTH at Airport and at the Flights Ops building this time!
FILTERS are your Friend
Did you know with Crew Access you have the ability to create Filters for up to 5 TEXT ALERT SUBSCRIPTIONS? You also have the ability to create numerous personal filters when searching Crew Access to navigate easier viewing when searching for specific days, trips, layover cities or FA position. Filters can be a one use option or saved for future use and ease when searching in Crew Access and deleted anytime at your discretion.
