COMBINED DOMESTIC/INTERNATIONAL OPERATIONS
WHY ARE WE COMBINING DOMESTIC AND INTERNATIONAL OPERATIONS AT LAA?
There are many reasons to combine. First of all, International growth is a primary focus at American Airlines, so it makes sense that all Flight Attendants are
qualified to fly both Domestic and International. Both the 2012 CBA and the CLA included provisions for combining the International and Domestic divisions as
soon as possible. The Legacy US Flight Attendants are all “overwater qualified” and already have a combined operation. A combined operation is essential to
moving into a Preferential Bidding System as well as an enhanced Trip Trade System.
IF THIS WAS AGREED TO IN 2012, WHY IS IT TAKING SO LONG?
Since late 2012, we have been training our Domestic Flight Attendants so they are overwater qualified. Also during that time, Crew Resources, Flight Service and
APFA have been working together with the IT department to prepare for this significant change. While it may sound simple to implement, the reality is that
there are many DECS/FOS limitations tied to the historically divided operations that had to be addressed.
WHEN WILL DOMESTIC AND INTERNATIONAL OPERATIONS BE COMBINED?
•
•
•
We are now on track to implement the combined operation for the May 2015 bid month, so the effective date will be May 2nd, 2015
What that means is that for the bases with adjacent operations, there will be only one base moving forward. LAX, DFW, ORD, MIA, BOS and LGA will
include both the formerly International and Domestic Flight Attendants in a single base. This means that even if you are currently based at IDF and you
are awarded an International trip selection for May, your HI1 will show that you are “DFW” based. And while International trip sequences will continue
to originate at those bases, the Crew Base names will change to the current Domestic Crew Base names.
All International Flight Attendants’ HI8 and 3* (next status) will be changed to reflect the Domestic Crew Base name at the end of January so that
vacation awards will be in seniority order for the appropriate base.
NOTE: When known, any future JCBA changes related to the combination of Domestic/International Operations will be incorporated.
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF THIS COMBINATION?
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
You’ll have the flexibility of bidding domestic or international selections for your monthly schedule
Following bid awards you’ll have the ability to trade or access open time for both domestic and international trips through Make-Up, Option II, and Critical Coverage
A single reserve list at each base
Ability to trip trade or optional exchange with any Flight Attendant at your base
No more need for Adjacent Base flying
If you’re MIC obligated you’ll have the flexibility to fly Domestic or International trips to fulfill your obligation
A single transfer list and no need to proffer into an International base
More transparent assignment of reserves based on the single reserve list and no more cross utilization
Potentially fewer bid denials since the pool of pursers and foreign language speakers will be larger
Reserves will be able to preference Domestic or International trips in HIPREF
All pursers will have data plans on their tablets
WHAT OTHER CHANGES WILL OCCUR?
COMPUTER ENTRIES:
• All lists (like open time) will use the Domestic crew base name but if only looking for International trips, you would use an “I” instead of a “D”.
i.e. N3I/DFW//2MAY to see the International trips in open time or ‘B’ to see both Domestic and International open trips (or N4D/I/B/)
i.e. N3B/DFW//2MAY
BID LINES AND TRIP SEQUENCES:
• Until Preferential Bidding is implemented, bid lines will continue to be built as either pure Domestic or pure International
• International trip sequences may still contain Domestic flight segments
• Replacement/Relief lines will increase to an 80-hour guarantee
• Relief lines and open replacement preference remarks will be provided in the next bid sheet Domestic/International combination information
QUALIFICATIONS:
• Combined Domestic/International Operations means that all Flight Attendants will need to be “Overwater Qualified” for International and potentially
trained on all equipment at the base
• In January 2015, we will begin “Overwater Qualification/Ditching” Training through a proffer for Domestic Flight Attendants who do not have that
qualification.
• If after the proffered training slots are filled there are still vacant slots in a class, Flight Attendants who do not have the “overwater qualification” will
be drafted by base in reverse seniority order.
• “Overwater Qualification” training will be a 3 day hands-on class with an optional 4th day of hands-on International Flagship Service (IFS) training.
• Domestic Flight Attendants who have maintained their Overwater Qualification will be provided an opportunity to obtain IFS and AIFS qualification in
2015. Details to be communicated as soon as they are available.
• All Flight Attendants will be required to have the “Overwater Qualification” by the end of 2015.
• Effective with the May bid all Flight Attendants will be in a Domestic status, but as long as you are qualified on International and have the required
service qualifications, you will be able to be awarded an International line and fly International trip sequences.
INTERNATIONAL PAY:
• International override of $3.00 per hour will apply to all hours flown or paid removals on International legs, including diversions, deadheading and
flight pay and credit
DUTY AND REST LIMITATION CHANGES:
• Layover and Home Base Rest will be determined by the type of trip sequence flown
• 30-in-7 limitation will be eliminated (35-in-7 limitation will be implemented at a later date in accordance with the JCBA timeline)
• On-duty and rest provisions will remain the same as today for both Domestic and International trip sequences (when programmed, on duty
limitations and rest provisions in accordance with the JCBA will be implemented and provided at a later date)

* If on a non-long range trip, the Company may reduce the required 12 hour rest by up to 2 hours in actual operations, provided the Flight Attendant was originally scheduled for the legal
rest, but due to a late operation, the trip is arriving later than scheduled. The reduction of rest may not cause the Flight Attendant to depart earlier than originally scheduled.
TRANSFERS/PROFFERS:
• All International Flight Attendants’ HI8 and 3* (next status) will be changed to reflect the Domestic Crew Base name at the end of January with an
effective date of 02May15.
• Transfer lists will be purged on March 5th after all April transfers have been processed. It is no longer necessary to add an international proffer
preference. Flight Attendants will need to re-enter a transfer request as a Domestic base, including RDU. This will ensure you are on the proper base
transfer list. The entry to add a transfer request to your 3* record is 3C/T/BASE-D.
VACATION BIDDING FOR 2015 VACATION:
• A combined seniority list for each crew base will be published on the Crew Resources link from the Flight Service website by the day vacation bidding
opens in February.
INTERNATIONAL FLYING DEFINITIONS:
•
INTERNATIONAL SEQUENCE - A sequence in which any leg takes off or lands outside the contiguous forty-eight (48) states, Mexico, Canada and
Alaska, with the exception of the Military Air lift Command (MAC). It may also include a flight which operates within the contiguous forty-eight (48)
states, Mexico, Canada and Alaska, which requires a Flight Attendant over water qualification. (definition will be updated under the JCBA)
•
Non-Long Range Flying - an International duty period which does not contain flying in excess of twelve (12) hours block. The on-duty period will not
be scheduled or rescheduled to exceed fourteen (14:00) hours.

For more information please refer to the “What to Expect” Document located on the Flight Service Website under Recurrent Training. Flight Attendants are
expected to be familiar with the material contained within the FA Tablet eManual Revisions and Bulletins on their effective date and may be
evaluated on this material while at CQ Training.
WHEN TO ENROLL IN CQ TRAINING:
Each flight attendant is responsible for knowing when his/her qualifications will expire and ensuring any required training is completed when due. Flight
attendants are expected to attend CQ Training in their Base Month. CQ Training may not be postponed into the Grace Month unless you are on vacation,
sick, LOA, injury, personal or operational emergency during your Base Month. ***Flight Attendants who do not attend training in their base month will be
pre-plotted in their grace month. ***
•
•
•
To verify your base month, refer to your *9 Training Record. (In your personal mode in DECS, enter HI*9)
It is recommended that you do not alter your schedule until after you have scheduled training. Altering your schedule could make you illegal for
training and may result in trip removal without pay to accommodate training.
Classes are filled on a first-come, first-serve basis and fill quickly. It is best to enroll early. Classes at the beginning of the month typically have openings.
Please try to schedule yourself into a class in the first half of the month, if possible.
•
If JAN is your Grace Month, you must enroll in CQ Training before bids open for
enrolled.
•
Crew Manning will not award a live bid to any flight attendant who will not be qualified on the first day of the new bid month. If
•
•
•
•

Month, you must notify the Base Planner no later than JAN 19 if you have been scheduled for training to be awarded a bid. Flight attendants
returning from a Leave of Absence (LOA) must notify the Base Planner and Pay Comp of training and return to work dates.
Flight attendants who do not attend CQ Training by the end of their Grace Month will be required to complete the Requalification Training online lesson
prior to CQ Training. This lesson must be completed in the same month as CQ Training. You cannot fly until this is accomplished.
If you attend CQ Training in the month prior to your base month, your HI*9 (training record) will be updated to reflect the first day of your current base
month
If you attend CQ Training in your grace month, your HI*9 (training record) will be updated to reflect the last day of your current base month
To realign your Base Month, you must attend CQ Training at least two months prior to your Base Month.
For example, if JUN is your Base Month, you must attend CQ Training by APR to realign your Base Month.
Flight attendants may not realign CQ Training into a reserve month due to limited reserve slots.

WBM/777
Two schedules for the month: January 1st thru January 5th and January 6th thru January 30th (30 day bid month). Cadence and Purity is somewhat inconsistent in
both the Allocations and Bid selections due to the schedule change and holiday cancellations for New Year’s and MLK.
777 MIA:
One MIA-LAX Transcon – Sequences cannot be built back-to-back due to home base rest requirements. # of Bid Lines = 4. Avg = 81:40.
Total positions = 40. OT = 5:00.
777 JFK:
One JFK-MIA turn that only operates thru 5-January. The sequence has been split down to 4/4 positions and added into the 757/737 JFK Domestic
Bid Selections. # of Bid Lines = 0. Avg = 00:00. Total positions = 0. OT = 49:04.
WBM DFW: Two turns, two 2-days – four of the 2-day Selections are built back-to-back (2 on each sequence). # of Bid Lines = 13. Avg = 77:59. Total
positions = 91. OT = 0:00.
WBM LAX: LAX has a total of 7 JFK Transcons: 4/1, 256/255, 32/19, 22/3, 180/117, 10/293, 30/185, and two LAX-MIA Transcons that only operate thru 4January one of which is a 3–day sequence. Both LAX-MIA pairings are split to 6 positions and placed in the JFK Transcons Selections. The
remaining 1-position pairings are in open time. Several of the Selections are built back-to-back for longer blocks of days off. # of Bid Lines = 30.
Avg = 82:17. Total positions = 180. OT = 129:31.

longer blocks of days off. Bid Selections are slightly mixed due to frequency no-ops and holiday cancels. # of Bid Lines = 34. Avg = 83:51. Total
positions = 204. OT = 6:13.
WBM MIA: Two MIA-JFK turns that only operate 6 days for the month. The added MIA-JFK turns are worked into the existing Selections which caused purity
and cadence disruption. One MIA-MCO turn thru 5-January and then becomes a double MIA-MCO turn on 6-January. One MIA-MCO-MIA-DFW
2-day – and the MIA-MCO portion does not operate on Sat/Sun/Mon - all four of the Selections are built back-to-back. # of Bid Lines = 7. Avg =

= 107. OT = 0:00.
757/737
For the month of January we have a small schedule change on the 6th and a large change on the 12th plus holiday cancellations on the 1st. This has a negative
effect on the bidlines cadence and purity of the lines. Most bidlines are mixed by departure times and trip types. Below is a list of things that stick out for the month.
Flying was heavier at the start of the month.
BOS:
49 lines. Had to mix a few multiday trips with turns.
DCA:
55 Lines. Trip types are mixed as well as times. DCA has 49 lines, IAD has 4 lines, and BWI has 2 lines.
DFW:
235 Lines. Had to mix departure times tried to keep trip types together. We were able to put some 2day trips back to back. Had to mix all trip types to
get lines to utilization. I kept YVR turns together as much as possible. Some lines with 1 day off between trips due to the schedule changes.
LAX:
118 Lines. Had to mix departure times in bids. 9 San bids.
LGA:
117 Lines. Had to mix some departure times and trip. Tried to put the 2days back to back.
MIA:
140 Lines. 9 FLL, 5 PBI, and 0 ATL. Had to go back and add some turns into the multiday lines to reach needed utilization.
ORD:
161 Lines. Put some 2 day trips back to back as requested by the base. Trip types are mixed due to the schedule change and holiday.
SFO:
34 Lines. Kept like trips together as much as possible.
SLT:
0 Lines. STL moved to all S80 per scheduling.
