Holiday Pay (JCBA 4.I)

Holiday Pay

In addition to all other compensation, a working Flight Attendant

shall be paid at double her/his hourly rate of pay as stated in

Paragraph A. above. The amount of holiday pay due shall be

calculated as follows:

1. Lineholder

Formula: Hourly rate of pay times the credited flight time for the pairing,

divided by the number of hours away from home, times the

number of hours away from home falling within the holiday.

2. Reserve

a. If released on a holiday, Reserve receives no holiday pay.

b. If on Ready Reserve status and does not fly = 4:27 (30 days)

or 4:13 (31 days) times the Reserve’s hourly rate.

c. If on Ready Reserve status and flies a pairing, receives

greater of Paragraph b. or Lineholder computation.

A Flight Attendant qualifying for two (2) hour call-out pay

or five (5) hour Standby Reserve pay shall receive double

pay for those hours if they fall within the holiday period.

3. In addition to compensation provided under Section 11, Flight

Attendants scheduled by the Company to attend any training

or meeting on a holiday shall receive holiday pay pursuant to

Paragraph I.1. and 2. above.

4. Flight Attendants will be paid for the holidays specified for her/

his Domicile country. No Flight Attendant shall be eligible to be

paid for more than five (5) holidays in any calendar year.

Example:

A Flight Attendant making $40.00 per hour flies a pairing which

produces fourteen (14) hours of credited flight time and keeps

the Flight Attendant away from home (check-in to check-out)

for forty-eight (48) hours of which twenty-four (24) hours falls

on the holiday:

$560.00 ÷ 48 hours away from home = $11.67

$11.67 x 24 hours on holiday = $280.08

Holiday Pay = $280.08
