Well....here is another data point. I was offered Delta interview and then had to change my date of availability by months. I was told I would have to re-compete for interview in 90 days.....I interviewed and entered the pool with United. I have not heard back from Delta....guess I'll have to abandon my MD88 dreams and learn to live with wide body flying....ha ha

Not sure if this helps, but during my interview the other day, they made me confirm/sign my availability during the HR panel on day 1 prior to receiving the CJO. So if your availability changes significantly for a pre-known event, they could decide not to give you a CJO if they believe it's an integrity issue (since they make you confirm and sign before ever giving you a CJO). For those using RST, Tito covered this in his podcasts. For context, (based on the podcast) it sounds like the major airlines may be tired of getting burned by people separating the military providing "two weeks notice" in their Apps and then showing up at the interview saying they're not available for 6-months. No offense to Mil guys (I am one), just restating what I've heard. Common sense would suggest that life events that pop up (after the app was submitted) shouldn't be a big deal, as life happens. However, if it comes across that the candidate misrepresented their availability in order to score an interview quicker... then those folks may be playing with fire.

Stated much better than I did...exactly what I meant to convey.

7ER (DEN and MIA) and md88 (LAS) most frequently. I've heard of the 717 training in MIA but I think Delta finally bought that sim and moved it to ATL. No intel on how much or how often this occurs. As data points, during my newhire cycle about half of 7ER pilots spent time in MIA and currently some 7ER continuing qual training is taking place in DEN.
