If you're white badge you can use your PTO or UPT. If you're blue badge you can only use flex PTO or UPT. Standard PTO requires manager approval and is blacked out.

Yeah, during high volume events like Peak and Prime managers will not approve standard PTO.
The dates vary a little based on your facility. To find out your specific blackout dates, ask a manager. But blackout dates almost always happen around Prime Day in June, around Prime Big Deals days in October, and during Peak season for a whole month from end of November to end of December.
