If the Flight Attendant is present at the airport, and the uncovered segment or trip is scheduled to depart in less than two (2) hours. There are no Reserve Flight Attendants available orĬ. There are no Ready Reserves available andī. above, in the absence of a Flight Attendant, an uncovered flight segment or trip may be filled by reassigning the most junior Flight Attendant who is already present at the airport or city in which the uncovered flight segment is scheduled, who is legal, qualified, and available to fly the uncovered flight segment or trip provided that:Ī. Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraph Q.1. A Flight Attendant is entitled to schedule integrity which is defined as the right to fly his or her bid trip and not be rescheduled provided that his or her trip operates and he or she is legal to fly it.Ģ. has been followed, Flight Attendants may be subject to Reroute/Reschedule in inverse seniority order away from base among Flight Attendants that are legal pursuant to the FARs and the Agreement, and available.ġ. After the order of assignment in paragraph M. Reroute/Reschedule is anytime a Flight Attendant is involuntarily assigned to an uncovered segment(s) or trip(s) or the original trip is modified. Check out this portion from the Spirit AFA Flight Attendant Contract where we can see the rules related to rescheduling, rerouting, and day off language in one place - Section 8: Scheduling, Q. Working for an “ultra low cost carrier” (ULCC) doesn’t mean Flight Attendants can’t have clear protections. For example, you can see all the provisions that come into play to minimize or prevent a Flight Attendant from getting flown unnecessarily into a day off at Spirit Airlines.

Some contracts negotiated over decades have different sections with rules that work together, and requires reviewing each contract section to get the full picture. With a contract, we would have very specific rules for how and when we could be extended and compensation for being flown into our day off. Let’s look at getting flown into your day off on a trip as a lineholder. When that includes getting flown into a day off or your next assignment, there are also pay penalties for the company and clear procedures that give Flight Attendants choice, pay, and some control in the reassignment process. When the operation is in meltdown, the contract gives schedulers clear rules to put it back together. All transparent, trackable, and they minimize schedule disruptions for Flight Attendants.
That doesn’t happen with a Flight Attendant contract that covers reserve rules, lineholder reassignment, and lineholder reroute rules. Without a contract, Delta management has total control to set the rules and change them on a dime in the actual operation – as many of us experienced over the Christmas, New Years, and even this weekend. This is the airline industry - getting reassigned, rerouted or flown into your day off happens.
