4. RSV Preferencing Assignment Process:
Reserve Preferencing Overview
_ _ _ _ _ _
Reserve Preferencing provides Flight Attendants who are on Reserve the opportunity to express preferences for specific assignments or types of assignments by placing various criteria on file in the system. During the Reserve Preferencing process each evening for the next day’s assignments, the system will use the submitted criteria and attempt to match the Reserves to corresponding open assignments, if legal and available. A Reserve’s preferences, if any, will be considered during the assignment process for each day they are available.
Information about how to access the Reserve Preferencing portal and submit your preferences can be found in the Appendix at the end of this guide.
IMPORTANT NOTE: PREFERENCES ENTERED INTO AND USED BY THE RESERVE PREFERENCING SYSTEM ARE COMPLETELY SEPARATE FROM THE FOUR ESTABLISHED READY RESERVE PREFERENCES (MAXIMUM FLYING, NO PREFERENCE, MINIMUM FLYING OR STANDBY), ALL OF WHICH ARE CONSIDERED FOR ASSIGNMENTS MADE AFTER 1930 HDT. READY RESERVE PREFERENCING WILL BE DISCUSSED IN THE READY RESERVE SECTION OF THIS GUIDE.
