I second that, ACL65. Rumor around the school house is 500. I believe they are doing 25/ class now. I still don't see how we are going to meet the summer schedule and how we are going to crew the 75's when they arrive.

What aircraft and base did you get?

BCDurbin,
After the interview and computer testing on the first day, if everything goes well, you are formally offered a conditional job with Delta in writing; pending the physical, psych eval, and background check. If you get the conditional job, that is when you come back for the second day. The second day is filled with the physical, MMPI test, and the Psych interview downtown. After talking to the psychologist, the shuttle took me to the airport to fly home. So, yes I was offered the job, however, it is not official until they get the results from all the second day stuff and background check. Hope this helps. Good luck to you!

Do any of you Delta Bound guys know...

1) How long until Delta medical Benefits kick in?

2) Training is paid, unpaid, per diem, etc?

3) Hotel is included for training?

Thanks

It seems like it is a quick turn around. Once you get in the door at least.

1. Immediately

2. 2750 a month until completion of IOE, then 48.88/flight hour for 70 hours guarantee on rsv.

3. Hotel included for first 12 days. Then you're on your own.

New hires fly a trip on the jumpseat to observe the operations, then fly a 3 or 4 day trip with a LCA.

You fly a 3 day trip in the jumpseat, and then have 40 hours of IOE flying.

I personally had a 3 day trip and then a 4 day trip out of ATL 8 days off in between those. Then 6 days off and a 2 day shuttle trip out of LGA.

It was all in all a great experience. Reserve here is a totally different ballgame than the regionals... talk about night and day. The rules are so much better.
