I don't know your particular circumstances, but if you are going to be a commuter either way, LGA is a better deal than most appreciate. People are getting a line after only 1-2 months on reserve.

Just an FYI. I thought I'd be transferring as soon as possible, but now I'm staying until I can move to a domicile.

As of two weeks ago Flight Admin was given the go ahead to process 930 NH’s this year.

The one thing I am absolutely positive of is that one hand has no clue what the other hand is doing. It wouldn't surprise me in the least that too many cooks are in the kitchen with different ideas of what should be done.

I am confident some one makes the decision and communicates it. But it is not communicated widely, so gossip, guesses, and conjecture fills the void for everyone else.

It would be nice if the people making the decisions were to send an official announcement out with hiring numbers, even if it has to change later in the year. Then people could point to it. Whether they believed it would be another story, but at least there would be an announcement out there.

Anyone care to speculate on a 737 base in CLT in the future?

Looks like a I'll be a flow through next year since I haven't gotten the call anywhere else yet. Trying to determine what the future may hold for me.

Well, I suppose that means I need to pray for an airbus slot when the day comes so I don't have to change equipment and base. Regardless, I'll just be happy to be there.

Thanks for the info.
