Collective Bargaining Agreement
2005-2010
Vacation Allocation - Merge
Mr. Kevin Lum, President
UAL/AFA Master Executive Council
Association of Flight Attendants
6400 Shafer Court, Suite 250
Rosemont, IL 60018
Dear Mr. Lum:
This will confirm the parties agreement reached in negotiations leading to the 1996-2001 and 2001-2006 Agreement regarding the allocation of vacation in domiciles with both Domestic and International flying.
Following the merger of the International and Domestic Operations, there will be no restriction on the monthly vacation allocation for line of flying bidding purposes. In the event the percentage of vacations awarded to lines of International flying for a calendar year causes an increase in overall vacation cost relative to the population, the Company will establish a ratio allocation for monthly bid awards based upon Flight Attendant block hours.
The number of vacation days bid in each type of flying and the seniority of the Flight Attendants awarded will be compared to historical data by a Committee composed of AFA and Company representatives.
Sincerely,
/s/ Sara Fields
Sara Fields
Senior Vice President
