Save some of that money for uniforms and a crash pad during initial.
I'm not sure if you know the regionals had a pay for training employment model in the 1990s. I spent $11,000 to start at $15ish an hour in a turboprop. Some claim it was lunacy but I'm here today and education debt free.

Not quite the same thing since at the regionals back then you were already hired. I guess you could argue the hiring was conditional, but still you knew going in what those conditions were. The Delta ATP program is completely separate entity from being a Delta employee. Basically the order (maybe) matters: you’re hired, now pay for training, vs pay for training, now you’re hired...

I know people who attended certain colleges because those programs offered an increased chance with a certain company. Is that wrong because they didn’t have the job before attending?
