Second Round Vacation Awards to Be Posted November 18

Date: November 17, 2022

Second round bidding for 2023 Vacations has now concluded and awards will be posted no later than the close of business on Friday, November 18, 2022.  To view your 2023 vacation awards, login to CCS, click on the Vacation tab and then select My Vacation from the drop-down menu. 

Flight Attendants who did not submit a vacation bid in the first round of bidding, were considered to be a NO BID and were, consequently, required to bid all of their accrued days in the second round of vacation bidding.

Any Flight Attendant not submitting a vacation bid in the second round of bidding or who bid insufficiently were automatically assigned a vacation as a no bidder. Keep in mind, the vacation you were assigned was awarded after the second-round vacation awards were completed for all Flight Attendants submitting a bid. The assigned vacation is made in seniority order from December backward through January, with the largest block of days being assigned first.

What if My Bid is considered an Insufficient Bid?

When a Flight Attendant submits a vacation bid and is unable to hold any of their selections, they are considered an Insufficient Bid. In this instance, vacation is assigned in seniority order from December backward through January after that round of vacation has been awarded to all bidders. The assignment is based on the number of days in your bid with the largest block of days assigned first.

During second round bidding there were a significant number of Flight Attendants who did not submit bids or bid insufficiently to cover themselves.  As a result, many vacations during the second round of vacation were assigned. The Vacation Team has made a significant effort to get vacation awards published in advance of the contractual award date.
