Reserve Christmas Wish List

Christmas Wish List Requests (SECTION 10.C.13.C)
Christmas Wish List (CWL) assignments should follow the following guidelines:
- If the number of requests per layover city outnumbers the number of available positions, requests should be honored in seniority order.
- If the only way to satisfy a CWL is by opting the Reserve, then the Reserve is automatically opted to 97 hours for December and 97/194/276 hours for the Dec.-Jan.-Feb. quarter. Reserves should make sure they really want the CWL trip before submitting the request, and take it out if they change their minds.
- CWLs do not overrule LQ and Purser qualifications. For example, a Reserve should not be granted a CWL if the only way to do so would be to assign her to a qualified Purser position on a trip, if there are other qualified Purser Reserves legal and available for the trip.
