I did a phone screening over the last few days, I am curious what the process for base selection and bidding is. I hear that there is some flying going on out of DFW now, let’s say if I can’t hold a FL base and get sent there first, would the trips they fly there be commutable?

What are the junior bases?

What is the bidding system Silver uses?

What kind of flying / where are they flying out of DFW?

btw, on the phone screening the HR person told me the new FO first year pay was $42.86/hr. An improvement over what the pay rates show on their airline profile. Anyone have more info on the new pay scales? Was there a new contract signed recently?

Any info appreciated!
