They won't issue another AE this fall. More than likely they not have any more AE's this year. They will have a MOAB in January to do a 365 Bid. Send most of the pilots to training from Feb- May and then after summer.
So glad you’re not running things.

The next two AEs after this new hire positions AE will create significant movement. Exciting times here at Delta.

Good on you. That’s a classy bet.

They've gone from barely anything to as many as possible. They want 100 a month indefinitely now. This is the way it always goes! Cut corners to the breaking point, then holy crap that didn't work... HIRE!

Exciting indeed.

And unpredictable. Unfortunately, in order to change aircraft you'll remove any and all certainty about being able to attend any or all important functions/anniversaries/weddings/graduations/etc. in the 7-12 months following the unpredictable AE. And you may just watch someone 3,000 numbers your junior pull down a sweet IQ schedule with most weekends off while you work all of them. For significantly less than 5:15/day. On Virginia Ave. In the summer [or the winter...you're not actually sure until you're scheduled].

The one thing you CAN control is just when you put in the 40-60 hours of self study at home to upgrade (for less than 2 days' pay).

Hopefully we will some day see more training schedule control, vacation preservation, better compensation and opportunities to use one's seniority to actually bid on IQ training patterns a la CQ. I'm perplexed why we've allowed the company to control so much of our lives when changing aircraft.

Does anyone know if this is industry standard? It sure doesn't feel like an industry-leading system to me. Only a select few can count on keeping their vacation plans intact, even if...I don't know... the president were to call?

There is always a chance the bid could be pushed into January but I think it’s a safe bet. A330 sim availability will drive the bid timing.

Today's AE states end of 2019 or 2020.
Almost every AE that has been projected by CR has been pushed back a month or 2.

Me thinks the company will use the next bid as a hook for a TA. Leak rumors of big numbers but only if we agree on a TA quickly.
