Award 2014-1 is out. For FNG's, 36 slots on the 747 in ANC, and 10 slots on the 767 in CVG. This should give you some insight on the future hiring, good luck to those in the pool and welcome to the "world of change" to the guys/gals that go the call for a class.

In anticipation of a phone call some time, has the phone interview changed at all? Or is there a new screening system of questions they ask? Thanks!

Oh that's fine. After 19 years of the Air Force pay and travel system I can totally live with that. So long as it comes in eventually to help offset the cost, that's just fine with me.

Fidelity.

There is the usual collection of mutual funds. However there is also a brokerage link option that gives you a full brokerage account within the 401k, so you can hold stocks, bonds, ETFs, almost any mutual fund and use conservative options strategies.
Thank you for the info.

On a side note, do any of you guys subscribe to the EPP (medical HMO) plan? Is that like a kaiser type deal? How does that work? Thanks.

Looks like the three Dash 8's are coming home to Atlas Air.



Business Wire

PURCHASE, N.Y.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Atlas Air Worldwide Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq:AAWW), a leading global provider of outsourced aircraft and aviation operating solutions, today said that it intends to pursue new ACMI (aircraft, crew, maintenance and insurance) placement opportunities for three 747-8 Freighter aircraft currently operated for British Airways plc by Atlas Air Worldwides 49%-owned UK subsidiary, Global Supply Systems Limited (GSS).

The action follows notice from British Airways, a unit of International Consolidated Airlines Group, S.A., regarding British Airways strategic decision to exit dedicated cargo-freighter service and to return the aircraft to GSS in April 2014 pursuant to the terms of the existing ACMI agreement between the parties.

Effective with the termination of the agreement, the three 747-8Fs will be redelivered to the company by GSS. Through GSS, the company also will receive contractual early termination fees from British Airways.

We deeply appreciate our long relationship with British Airways and its cargo affiliate, IAG Cargo, said William J. Flynn, President and Chief Executive Officer, Atlas Air Worldwide (AAWW). We are very proud to have served them over the past 18 years, including the last 12 years through GSS.

We are also focused on the continued development of our business. We are an innovative provider of outsourced aircraft and aviation operating solutions to the global aviation industry. And we will deploy these freighters in profitable revenue operations once redelivered to us, taking advantage of their superior fuel efficiency, range, capacity and loading capabilities. We believe these qualities create a compelling value proposition for our customers.
