You'll probably get SLC when it opens.

 

We are finally being bought by OO?! I knew the FAs were on to something!

 

That would get rid of a BOI SEA commute at least

 

It's really the classiest way to go!

 

as of 2/20/18,

looks like anyone can get SEA out of training. At the time of my writing this, new hires can pick any base they want and get it by the time they finish training. I imagine PHX will soon become impossible to get out of training, as a lot of people are coming to CPZ for PHX.

Seattle has been seeing healthy growth for the past 5 months and likely will not stagnate or decrease in size in 2018.

if you were here in 2016 or 2017, Seattle was awful. No movement, year plus reserve, etc.... But that time has passed, and the whole company felt the 2017 hiring freeze in that way.

Reserve time looks short, and the reserves are flying a lot. I've spent the past 5 months in SEA on reserve at the most junior spot. Finally, the new guys started hitting the line in December, and in 3 months I went from bottom reserve guy to bottom line holder FWIW. Was flying 45-60 hours a month on reserve here.

Also, cost of living is high, but nothing like LAX cost of living.

If you get stuck in LAX for a few months, that commute is easy

 

Thank for the info on here....dropped my app and SEA will be my #1 if I get the call. Time to start the move back out west!

 

Since AA flying comes through SEA 5x per day, can’t we get AA trips for SEA crews? Every other base does SEA flying on DL. Could this help our pairing efficiency? Thoughts?

 

“That’s a good point. We’ll look into it.”

 

WHAT? You were hired in November, started class in early december, and now in Mid April aren’t on the line ?! Out training department is to blame for this FO shortage

 

He posted that in early February. Do you know for a fact he's still in training?
