Default Separation timing from Active Duty

Hi All,

Mil guy (new to APC) trying to plan a separation timeline. I am still AD, but looking at applying to DL, UA, etc. As the hiring continues, how does it look for timing in the pool before starting training? Specifically, how long can you hold off starting training from the time you get the job? I realize you want to get started in a class ASAP (seniority is everything!), but is there any leeway at all? Someone I work with mentioned the other day it depended on the airline. If they offer you a class date, can you say you want to defer to say 2-3 months later?

I am complete with my UPT commitment, but on the hook for GI bill which will mean a PC, so that will take time to get approved, but I figured I would start submitting some apps in the meantime....
