You quoted above “days of availability groupings”. I called it RAW groupings. To-May-toe To-Mah-toe.

Never mind. I have the answer I need.

More like "tomato, bacon"

You can't just use the wrong term and say it's different phrasing.

I keep hearing about people hired in 2021 already making captain in Nyc but looking at widget seniority that should be taking quite a bit longer. Is the estimate in WS a bit pessimistic? Does NB A really take 10 years at ATL? I would assume it would come slightly faster if the hiring continues and the economy doesn’t implode.

Widgetseniority makes projections based on current numbers. Once those awarded are converted it will be reflected in their projections. If you look at the AE Analysis they look at specific AEs instead of the current seniority within a category.

With recent developments it is also hard to make long term projections on what you might be able to hold down the road.

Currently every NB A category at Delta can be held by a 2015 hire.
Edit: Not including 7ER (757/767 combined category)

CA on the 717 went to 2019 hires in ATL this last bid.

Anyone have experience with international flights lately with open seats but they aren’t authorizing the seats for sale? One flight I’m looking at is at like 70/0. It is still a couple weeks away. I’m wondering if they are just trying to push up prices and holding them for later or if they won’t even release the seats for non-revs.

AMS cutting capacity by 13,500 daily passengers

When switching aircraft I think we now do systems at home prior to day 1. I tried to log onto the systems course via LMS and it says "Not for Credit." Do I have to wait to be assigned the curriculum first? The new manuals were all pushed to my IPAD so I thought I could just start.

Thanks Scoop

Maybe that means pay only, no credit. Haha.

Yeah, you have to be rostered to get the $$. I believe you get an email telling you "the following courses were added to your LMS "

And....hah! to the pay not credit comment. Someone drinks good coffee to fire that gem off this early. 😁
