As long as there are cadets, 121 won’t be getting first pick. Again, assuming, your choice of word, not mine, that there are no other changes in the economy, by this time next year the pool of new hires should have a pretty even distribution of those in each class with a few cadets, a few prior 121 and a few that fit in the “other” category. Last I saw someone said they were offered a class about two months out. I think the last class only had new hires that were cadets. You can scan the previous posts to see what people said about themselves, interview and class dates, etc, but IIR, there were some that were not cadets being offered classes. The pipeline is certainly not full of cadets that will fill classes very far out. Get a hold of a recruiter and ask the questions directly to them. Always consider your source of information, whether a recruiter or an anonymous web forum.

If you are prior 121, why come to Envoy and why wait? You will be abused while on reserve of either plane.
