Vacation together with our off-days have a high priority especially for us as pilots and are an important building block for a healthy work-life balance. With a stronger focus of the company on more efficient planning and the endeavour to achieve a higher level of automation in the planning process, we already noticed last year problems with the allocation of vacation days.

To better evaluate the success rate of the vacation allocation for 2022 we need your support!

With a survey after each bidding round (first, second and VOFF) we plan to collect important information to improve the allocation process in the future. What is particularly important in this context is whether the bids were placed as “fixed” or “flexible” dates to evaluate the intention behind them and the results.

Therefore, we would like to ask for your individual vacation bidding and allocation results and to answer a few questions. This survey is now the first of three surveys, which covers the recent publication of the vacation days of the first bidding round.

Please note, this survey will be held in strict confidentiality – only the overall results will be communicated.


To view the contained table in full size, we recommend filling out the survey on a computer, notebook or tablet. 

The survey closes on 17 October 2021.
