Also, I have heard you should be able to jumpseat home with not problems that afternoon, so no need to buy a return ticket. Can anyone who has started recently confirm this?
Not important, just it is nice to have, are you in KCM at that point? With the change in the uniform policy one wouldn't have to wait for their uniform to use KCM, but when are you in the system?
The first 30 minutes was spent listening to a credit union sales pitch.
Then we learned about some general policies (12 hr bottle to throttle being one of them). When we were done with all the general stuff, we ate lunch (Compass provided Jimmy Johns) and talked with the chief pilot. Afterwards we got set up for all the CBT's by one of the ground instructors. We were done by 2 pm.
They will already have you in cass that morning and a company badge will be sitting on your desk. Travel home was a breeze.
