It is such a shame I have to go to such lengths. If you bothered to read the document you would have found the following:
Definition 3.18 DESIGNATED DAY OFF means the period that a pilot shall be free of all Duty in their home base or base to which they have been temporarily transferred or during Leave Relief, from 2200 hours preceding until 0600 hours after such Calendar Day. Where there is a requirement for more than one Day off, a pilot shall be free of Duty in their home base or the base to which they have been temporarily transferred, from 2200 hours preceding until 0500 hours after such number of consecutive Calendar Days designated.
Clause 1.8.11 If a pilot on a tour away from home base is not required for Duty on any rostered Duty Day, such a Day shall be considered a day free of Duty for rostering purposes but not a Designated Day Off at home base.
Clause 1.9.3 A pilot's Designated Days Off may only be altered with the consent of both parties and in the case where Designated Days Off are varied then the conditions of subclause 1.1.8 of this Agreement apply except where an alternative day off is mutually agreed between the Company and the affected pilot.
The result - you are not entitled to any penalty payment nor do you have to be consulted whilst on deployment away from home base.
OAH
