It seems that AA has pretty much decided that EU is a wash for summer 2021, excluding some markets like ATH and LHR.

I saw AA training as being in the same boat as UA and DL and both of them are hiring earlier than expected.

This chat was the closest I could find regarding AA hiring to ask this question (apologize if missed a better one). So on the AA pilot application system, do you have to be using a certain web browser for the Assessment step to work? I went through and completed everything on their application, even changed from draft to publish thinking that might be the missing piece but nothing seems to work. I click on the Assessment tab on the app and just get a blank page?! I’ve tried it in Chrome, IE and my iPad but still just a blank page for the Assessment’s tab. I’d appreciate any guidance, in case I overlooked some instructions about that Assessment tab. Thanks!

Many people who have been at AA two years don’t have a training date in sight. I know of someone who was sent home from training due to instructor availability. There are also 330 guys on leaves who have to be trained that I know of. We’ll see how it plays out but I don’t think there’s much they can do at this point. In the meantime, I’ll continue enjoying month eight of vacation
Any updates to how training is going? Do all recalls have training dates yet?
I saw a post where one CJO said they were given an October class date, but wondering if anyone had heard of a class starting earlier than that.
