I hope so, but training is so slow, I’m not confident. I’m a May return that isn’t doing the first bit of training until mid June… and the training assigned still lacks the “international” ground, so that’ll probably spill into July somehow.

Hopefully they hurry up and get us all through, I’m ready to print premium pay and welcome newhires

I think they might, which is why they haven't scheduled any new hires other than the October class. Why go through the hassle of getting everyone else scheduled if you're just going to move them all up?

Recalled in April, I've flown every rap I've had so far. I'm sure the premium is coming soon

Just flew with a 737 FO that credited over 180 hours in March. Seems to me that it's all about how quickly our training department can get guys through. The flying is clearly here.

Let's get you guys back on the line and new guys onboard!

Whats the likelyhood of getting a call with no pic time but tons of heavy international and having experience flying all boeing types??

Just waiting for the call for a class date, will be happy to finally be a part of AA.

New application system, the assessment is not loaded yet. It’s not available to anyone, keep monitoring it.

So if you had your app in for the last 5 years,
you still have to take a new assesment?

Don't want to sound too presumptuous but, what's the time frame to left hand seat at American? Of course, willing to wait my turn, but just curious as my partner and I are looking at moving on from the middle east to the US preferrably LAX based (in-laws on the West Coast and it's one flight across the Pacific to home for me).

Thanks in advance,

Dookie.

3-5 years. Depends on base.

Pre-COVID was 2.5-3 years to NYC 737 CA. Post-COVID, too early to tell.
