I’ve been lurking in the Endeavor forum and reading about the nightmare long reserve time their new hires (and not-so-new-hires) are going through. Someone said they only did 100 hours total of flying and they were 6 months out of training.

I’m wondering if my class date in May is soon enough that I will still have seniority and actually be able to fly? If I had to wait until fall to start, I would probably choose a different airline because from what I’m reading in these forums, it sounds like where Endeavor was a year ago.

I know nobody has a crystal ball, but any educated guesses on the fate of a new hire starting class in the next couple of classes, versus someone starting towards the end of the year?
