In this day and age all the airlines have to do is a meet and greet and request ones training record from the regionals to evaluate an applicant. Seems to me a wast of time. Delta does the same ridiculous thing. As for the other people applying ie... Corporate, flight instructors and military I can see the reason for this process after all it's about customer service , CRM and working as a crew in the airline environment and understanding the airline work ethics. There is a lot of airline experience that has built up at the regional level thanks to 911 and the age 65 rule.

If they do the newhire classes in dfw in feb like they are saying, I bet it's going to be the AA way.

AA Interview Process
When delta took over the flow from compass management went through the files of the newhires on probation there and ended up letting someone go. All I am pointing out is there is a big discrepancy between the hiring process right now.

Regardless, I highly doubt that will happen.
