Not only did you pass, you excelled.

I am in the 767 pipeline now. We are on a 3 1/2 week break. Cut loose after systems, then back for a review week and the Oral. About 7 weeks for the sims is what my schedule shows. Looking at 4 months for initial training. But as was stated, we get min guarantee each month plus per diem while in MIami. Ticket home and back is also covered under the gateway program.
Wait so they sent you home as in expected you to vacate your room? Just curious as I am moving out of my apartment and would have to find housing somewhere if they "sent me home". Starting 767 on 2 Aug.

When we checked out in May for 3 weeks, yes, our reservations were closed out. We were rebooked a few days before our return. Shorter breaks, like 5-10 days between fixed base and full flight sims, folks are keeping their rooms. Perhaps the classes after me were handled differently. Best to ask your HR point of contact directly and request to keep your room.

I believe in such a case you would be allowed to remain in Miami, as mentioned contact your HR rep with this question.

Atlas is pretty good when it comes to situations like this. Talk to them and you’ll be able to stay in your room

Default OE Timeline After Training?

What's the gap between initial training and OE being scheduled? All fleet time lines if able.

Not long on the 76. About 3 weeks between getting home and my first trip (scheduled, not yet flown). I wasn't even part of the last OE bid as I had two events to complete the first week of September. Scheduling just converted my final 12 days of the month to OE / R1 (because we owe 17) and I had a trip pop up.

I know one of the folks in my class who was on the bid has his days jam packed. He wound up with a little over two weeks off.

Default 747 Training

Hi All! All the good info on here is really helpful, so thank you to everyone who participates in the information flow. I've gathered 747 training has been fairly backed up in the last couple of months. What is the status of this for the latest classes? Getting better / worse? How long after starting class are people being sent home and how long before they are back in MIA to finish up? Thank you!
