- ETB and MAX Time CBS

Dear Members,
The following CBS message was sent to all flight
attendants.
Date: Friday, 7 October 2005 10:18 ET
Subject: ETB and MAX Time
There have been a few questions about the MAX time
field (CATCREW options #2 and #5) and how it is affected by ETB.
Whenever you PICK UP time from the ETB, your MAX will
increase by that same amount of time.
If you DROP time using ETB, you will see your MAX go
down by that amount of time.
Once you pick up an ETB trip it becomes part of your
line just like any other trip,
whether it is a SAP trip or part of your original line. When the ETB
pairing is awarded to you, the obligation
(OBL), maximum (MAX) and projection (PRJ) are all adjusted automatically to
reflect the additional/reduced time. Trip improving on AIL from a pairing
picked up on ETB would be the same as any other trip scheduled in your line.
AIL pairings change only the projection/pay columns. Pairings picked up or
dropped using the AIL do not affect the MAX or the OBL times. AIL pairings do
however give you time toward meeting your OBL and reaching your MAX.
You have the ability to drop pairings using the ETB
(if you are over 50 hours, you may drop to the minimum of 40 hours) due to the
fact that you are reducing your OBL (and MAX) each time you drop a pairing on
ETB. One thing to keep in mind is that you must end the month with at least 50
hours of time.
I have also included an example below that may help
explain this as well. It shows what will happen when you pick up and drop time
using ETB, AIL, and Time Off Without Pay (TWOP).
