100 a month is what I've heard. Hang in there. My only wish is that they could have let us know farther out when we were starting indoc. When the call came, it almost felt better than the cjo. I just tried to remember how good we have it. Some companies make new hires wait weeks or months before they even get the cjo.
Could be worse.

It's part of the charm of being hired by Delta. Lol

Any updated recommendations on training accommodations? I'll be in ATL mid-July to mid-August. Thanks.

Totally depends how much you want to spend. Options range from cheap crashpad off Virginia to nice hotel off Virginia. If you have a car you can find nicer pads further away.

Last summer Staybridge Suites on Norman Berry was very popular. Any insight on what they're charging Delta folks these days? What are other folks spending on lodging? I'd like to live as lavishly as the average Delta trainee for the month I'm there.

I will have my car. I want to stay near Virginia Ave, and be near other folks in training.

Thanks again.

Plenty of parking down by the river!

With a car you can find a nice pad in a decent part of town, Virginia ave gets old quickly. I spent my days at the training center anyway.

Good luck
