Just trying to get a read on the timelines and on the milestone triggers during the process. Would I assume that the age must come first, so Republic has no choice but to allow the 24 months to occur? (I see an 850 HR upgrade bid trigger date).
thanks!! (And am interested if the February vote might change/eliminate the training contract provisions).
My wife got a class in 2023 the week after her 21st birthday. Had hours well before 24 months but obviously due to needing to be 23 she did not upgrade. However they had her in a class about a week before her birthday. That being said other than the age aspect things are always changing and currently upgrade is about 2 years of seniority anyways if not a few months longer.
