5.) bear in mind airlines go from the prom queen to a truck stop trixie and back during a career.
6.) accept your first offer, and when the other offers the CJO make your decision.
and finally
7.) you will not know you made the right decision until you retire.

congrats on the interviews

I appreciate the response. Lots of good perspectives to consider. I think the biggest factors for me will be living in base and retirement.

Southwest or American?

I have an interview with both, but trying to weigh pros/cons


It all depends on base options imo. Do you want to commute or not…whomever has the livable base, go there…or even the closest base to home. Definitely go to both though.

Have any Feb interviewees gotten class dates yet?

Any straight white males from WOs without connections or family members at AA getting hired lately?…

Go to United then try.

Are people seriously emailing a copy of UAL/DAL cjos to pilot hiring and it works- that seems odd to me.

Posts on AA RST are indicating six to eight weeks. CJO to class.

I got an email about a week after I applied to pick a date for an interview. Make sure you check your spam folder too, I have a friend that applied to a different airline and his invitation was in the spam folder.
