Common use of ORDER OF ASSIGNMENT Clause in Contracts

ORDER OF ASSIGNMENT. A. Reserve Flight Attendants shall be assigned pairings to provide for as even a distribution of flying as possible. Reserves who are used out of order will be compensated at one and one-half (1.5) times the applicable trip rate for all trips flown or credited. Order of assignment will be applied in the following manner: 1. Relative Daily Value (RDV) RDV is calculated by subtracting the Reserve month to date TFP and credits and the TFP associated with the remaining Reserve days from the Reserve guarantee. Formula: Block/Month Guarantee – TFP flown towards Block/Month Guarantee – (Days Left in Block/Month x 6.5) = RDV. When more than one (1) Flight Attendant returns to the domicile on the same day, the Flight Attendant with the highest RDV who is legal for the assignment will be used first. In instances where two (2) or more Flight Attendants have the same RDV, the most junior Flight Attendant will be assigned first. 2. Crew Scheduling will assign Reserves within the same category (SAR/SPR/JAR/JPR/JLR) and with the same number of days remaining in their Reserve block in the following order: a. Flight Attendants with a RDV of zero or higher and a Fly preference in seniority order. b. Flight Attendants with a RDV of zero or higher and a Pass preference in reverse seniority order. c. Flight Attendants with a RDV of less than zero in order from the highest RDV to the lowest. d. Flight Attendants with an equal RDV value less than zero will be assigned in the following order: 1. Flight Attendants with a Fly preference in seniority order. 2. Flight Attendants with a Pass preference in reverse seniority order. When assigning APSB, Crew Scheduling will assign Flight Attendants who have indicated an APSB preference before Flight Attendants who have not. 3. PASS/FLY Preference Flight Attendants may enter a Pass or Fly preference in the crew management system. The established preference will remain the same unless changed by the Flight Attendant. In the event that the Flight Attendant does not select a preference, the crew management system will default to the Fly preference. A Flight Attendant has the option to change her/his preference throughout the Reserve block if not already assigned. The preference established at 1659 Central Time will apply for the Reserve assignment(s) the following day. 4. Airport Standby (APSB) Preference Junior Reserve Flight Attendants may enter an APSB preference in the crew management system. A Junior Reserve Flight Attendant will have the option to select an APSB preference for each day of her/his Reserve block(s). In the event that a Flight Attendant does not select a preference, the system will not select the APSB preference. A Flight Attendant has the option to change her/his preference throughout the Reserve block if not already assigned. The preference established at 1659 Central Time will apply for the Reserve assignment(s) the following day. The APSB preference will only apply to Junior Reserve Flight Attendants whose RDV is zero or greater. B. The first official Reserve report will be run by Crew Scheduling at 1700 Central Time the day prior. Barring any technological difficulties, the Reserve report will be run in real time and archived every two (2) hours thereafter. Order of assignment will not be affected by trades or Pass/Fly preference changes until the next official Reserve report is run; however, if Crew Scheduling becomes aware of a change prior to the new Reserve report being updated, Crew Scheduling will run a new Reserve report at that time. Flight Attendants will be provided electronic access to the Reserve report starting at 1700 Central Time the day prior to their Reserve obligation. The Reserve report will display order of rotation, including the Flight Attendants’ RDV values, Pass/Fly preferences, Airport Standby Preference, Reserve standings, and availability times. Said reports will be updated in real time. If the Flight Attendant calls Crew Scheduling outside her/his contact hours, she/he will not be required to accept an assignment or reassignment during the call. C. A Flight Attendant shall not be assigned to Reserve during her/his vacation month. D. When a bid line holding Flight Attendant is moved up and a Reserve is called out to fly the same pairing, the more senior Flight Attendant may choose which position she/he will fly. E. If a bid line holding Flight Attendant is moved up, and the Reserve arrives in time for the assigned flight, the bid line holder will revert back to her/his original pairing. F. If two (2) Reserves are called out to fly the same pairing, the more senior Flight Attendant may choose the position she/he wishes to fly if both Flight Attendants are the same reserve designation. G. If a crew is to be split because of a reschedule and a Reserve is a member of the crew, the Reserve must be used prior to the rescheduling of a bid line holding Flight Attendant. H. A Reserve Flight Attendant may be assigned several pairings or portions of pairings including an ▇▇▇ pairing on the last day of the month. The maximum scheduled duty time of twelve and one-half (12:30) hours from check-in to end of debrief into domicile and thirteen (13) hours check-in to end of debrief into an ▇▇▇ may not be exceeded (except as stated in Article 8.2.B and 8.2.C).
