Hello all, has any one from the March 9th interview group not get a class date yet? There were 8 of us I know of 2 that got the TBNT and 3 that got the March 30th class. Besides me, that leaves 2 more that are still in the pool. Word is the next class is on the 27th of April with 24 planned to be in that class.

I just wanted to confirm because the email was kind of unclear. Did you guys just email the NHPS form back to the person that sent it (along with an updated resume)?

Default Health insurance

Hello! I have been reading the thread for awhile but one question I have yet to see much about is:

What sort of quality of coverage and cost for health insurance can be expected?

Thanks!

it is ala carte, Medical, vision and then denial. My friend chose the PPO option and it runs him $500 per month for all three.

Is that for just himself or does that cover spouse and family too?

Also do u guys have LTD, loss of medical and license insurance? How long does that coverage last for if you unfortunately need to use it? Thanks!

It is a messed up system, but the end result is 2 years of loss of license at 60% pay, an optional 3rd year that is pretty cheap to buy and sick leave that accumulates at 3 days/month. Long term sick leave is not capped.

Note that the first 24 days of sick leave are at full pay, while the rest is at 50%.

And a note to newhires -- sign up for that third year right out of the box. Getting it later involves getting a medical exam and approval is not guaranteed.

Had a message this morning from Atlas. I had passed the online test in early October. The message said the call was to "go over my resume" which I assume is the phone interview.

No idea why it took almost six months from test to call. I had been pursuing Atlas since late 2012. My quals are ~11,000TT and CL-65, B757, & B767 type ratings. Worldwide part 121 in the B767.

Anyway, don't give up if you don't hear anything right after taking the online test. The timeline is apparently quite flexible at that stage! LOL

FWIW, I started with United Airlines earlier this year so I won't be doing the phone interview. I received the invitation for the online test last September about a week after the email that started the UAL process.

Do the pilots at Atlas a favor and at least call HR back and tell them you are no longer interested because you just started a new job. It will help make the point that retaining people is important because they aren't the only ones hiring anymore.

Thanks for the Insurance updates. It was left unanswered, but the $500/mo is family insurance plan?
