Systems Outage - Irregular Operations

Dear Members 

We have learned that the Company is experiencing an outage related to the Sabre system and possibly other systems. As a result, this could potentially lead to extended duty days. Anytime there is an IROP we would like to remind members of the following: 
 

34-11.04 Any duty period extension beyond the maximum listed in 34-11.02 and 34-11.03 above requires the consent of the Cabin Personnel. 
 

The Company MUST gain consent. Individual Crew Members have the right to determine whether they are willing to extend past this point. This is not a matter of fitness for flight, this is a matter of choice, and it is your right under the collective agreement. 
 

If you are not requested and do not wish to proceed – Contact Crew scheduling and advise them, you do not wish to proceed as per the article above.  You may also use the new Crew View messenger feature in the app. 
 

Please contact your Base VP if you believe you have experienced a violation of the above. Please include your pairing details (screenshot acceptable), timeline of events such as notification of delays, changes, crew scheduling calls, etc.
