I find it hard to believe they don’t have classes running monthly. I heard someone just interviewed in the last two weeks got a January class date.

Take it for what you will. I interviewed last week and got the CJO on Tuesday. First-hand information. I'd like to start after the new year and hope to get the A220.

Would anyone be willing to share the seniority/reserve situations for Bradley and Charleston? TIA

I checked with the company. Your information was accurate. Thank you for sharing. Yes anyone interviewing now won’t get a class date until late Q1 or early Q2 of 2023.

no.

Spirit or Breeze
 

Just looking for the global perspective on whether breeze or Spirit would be a better option for a fresh-out-of-regional-training FO. Few variables are that Breeze would be a drive, Spirit a one leg commute. There are a lot of global differentiators like retirement, size, the JB merger, etc to consider but just making sure I’m not missing something big perspective that will sway this, so let me have it. QOL, upgrade times, reserve length, etc. what does the hive mind have to say?

Breeze for the drive. No question. The retirement plan will be worked on with our CBA, it’s the main thing we are lacking right now. It will come up

If you live in a Breeze base I would say Breeze, otherwise spirit wins in every metric. They just borrowed 600M and I would assume that’s going to boost their first year pay. Breeze is probably the least commutable airline out there, aside from allegiant.

I would be careful joining an airline that barrows large amounts of money. Especially to raise pilot pay, assuming that's true. Pilot pay and benefits can change for the worst real fast when a company starts down the slippery slope that lead to a bankruptcy.

Any answers to the PVU base questions asked previously?

1- Chances of getting PVU out of training as an FO and what aircraft would be the most plausible in PVU?

2- Anyone know the reason for those with CJO not having a class date until Q1 or Q2?

TIA

Well… they have a charter operation that is essentially a gateway program and 7 on / 7 off. That’s commutable. From what I’ve been told, the A220 side of things will eventually go to a 3/3 and a 4/4 schedule. They just need to grow. They understand that they’re crew bases are tough to get to so they have to make it up in other areas. Just what I have been told.
