Re: Vacation/Part-Time* Relief Flying ("Pilot" Relief Bidding) Article 9.C.2.a.(1) and Appendix I, 9.C.2.a.(1)

Dear John,

During the course of negotiations that led to the Agreement effective September 12, 2001, the Company and the Association of Professional Flight Attendants reached agreement on the following procedures for Vacation/Part-Time* Relief Bidding.

1.
Vacation/part-time* relief selections will contain only one (1) Flight Attendant's name and the dates encompassed by the vacation.

2.
Planned Vacations of less than ten (10) days will not be posted for bid.**
3.
Flight Attendants on the planned reserve list will not have their vacation or part-time* selections posted for bid.
4.
Flight Attendants bidding onto reserve who have their vacation or part-time* posted for relief bid will have their relief deleted.

5.
Flight Attendants will be permitted to bid for vacation/part-time* relief selections on their electronic monthly bid ballot.

6.
After the awarding of all trip selections, the Company will strive to build vacation/part-time* reliefs to seventy-three (73) hours Domestic, seventy-six (76) hours International, by augmenting the vacation/part-time* relief selection with other open time and/or available days as provided in Article 9.C.4.a.

7.
Multiple reliefs of a single trip selection will be permitted.

8.
Should there be insufficient Flight Attendants to fill relief bids projected for a particular month, the Company may determine not to award all relief bids for vacation periods greater than ten (10) days, beginning with those selections containing the fewest number of vacation days, up to the point which there are sufficient Flight Attendants to fill such bids.

Very truly yours,

Sue Oliver
Senior Vice President
