4. RSV Preferencing Assignment Process:
Post-Preferencing Processing & Release
_ _ _ _ _ _
Reserves who did not receive an assignment from the Reserve Preferencing system may receive an assignment as part of the post-preferencing clean-up process to assign pairings that became available after the open time capture and were not picked up by other Flight Attendants. Assignments made during the clean-up process do not consider any Reserve or Ready Reserve preferences that may be on file and are made in day of availability and TMAC order. These assignments will be available, along with the assignments through the Reserve Preferencing System, at 1930 HDT.
Remaining Reserves who are not assigned within the Reserve Preferencing system or during the post-preferencing clean-up may be either released from contact for the following day or assigned to the Ready Reserve list for the following day where they will be placed in appropriate time accrued order.
➢ When the number of Reserves available is equal to or greater than the projected number of Flight Attendants needed for the following day (as determined by the company), Reserves in excess of the number needed will be released (RLSD).
➢ The Reserve needs of each sub-base are considered individually when determining the ability to release.
➢ If released, Reserves will be so advised by the automated communication system.
➢ If only a portion of the Reserves can be released, those at the bottom of the respective TMAC list (i.e., those with the most time accrued) will be the Reserves released.
➢ Ready Reserve assignments made any time after the 1930 assignment process will follow the provisions outlined in Section 8.G. the Contract and as described in Chapter 6 of this guide.
➢ Ready Reserves are subject to displacement by a Lineholder up to 15 hours prior to check-in of the pairing, as specified in Section 7.I.12. of the Contract.
• At 15 hours prior to check-in, the Reserve will be released to check-in and will not be subject to displacement by a Lineholder.
