From the APFA hotline today: We have received notification from Crew Schedule that LAX, SFO and LGA are at Steps 7,8 and 9 of the order of open time coverage. Article 9.L. addresses flying to be assigned in the event Crew Schedule is unable to cover in the contractual steps 1 through 6 of the order of open time. Specifically, step 7 calls for Regularly scheduled Flight Attendants at the base to be contacted in reverse order of seniority, provided there is no conflict with his/her scheduled duty-free period. Step 8 calls for reserve flight attendants to be called on a duty free period and Step 9 calls for Regularly Scheduled Flight Attendants to be called on a duty free period.
Anyone know the reason? Was there weather that messed things up? Are we that short staffed? Granted this should be short lived possibly over by tomorrow. If you are on the last step in the order of open time. The company is scrambling to staff flights.
