Association of Flight Attendants
American Eagle

Personal Day–Section 10
Contractual Provisions
April 2006
Awarding POs has nothing to do with staffing. If you request a PO 24 hours or more before your assignment and the PO's are available, they must be granted. If you are being denied a PO due to staffing, please inform the Union.
1. Section 10 paragraph M tells us at each domicile, the Company will process, on a daily basis, a number of POs equal to 2% of the FAs based at the domicile, but in no event fewer than 2 POs. The LEC President (or designee) will, upon written request, be provided with verification from the company that the appropriate number of POs have been processed at the domicile.
Example: If there are 440 Flight Attendants based at a domicile, the Company will process at least (9) POs per day at that domicile, provided that at least (9) have been submitted. (440 x .02 = 8.8 rounded to 9)
Example: If there are 420 Flight Attendants based at a domicile, the Company will process at least (8) POs per day at that domicile, provided that at least (8) have been submitted. (440 x .02 = 8.4 rounded to 8)
