Can confirm that classes are back to normal sizes. I was told late summer/fall, possibly 2019 for a class date at interview in February. Recently got a call about classes open as early July! Looks like things might be back to normal since the merger deal fell through?

No, they were simply going from 2 down to 1 new hire class a month to put more focus on upgrades, but that 1 new hire class is for those already interviewed and in the pool, they aren't interviewing this summer as there are more than enough already in the pool unless they start jumping elsewhere rather than waiting on us.
As an aside; a number of junior FO's have mentioned reserve times are falling; in NY at least.

Not true about reserve times. July bid pack still has 900 fos hires from last September 18th still on reserve. The June pbs award shows about the same. Reserve time will not fall in nyc 900 fo until 900 fos begin accepting upgrades into the 200 versus having these positions go to “street captains” and the company realizes they don’t need 100 900 reserve fos a month at the expense of credit pushing junior 900 fo lineholders into 11 day off schedules... worse than reserve.

Attrition here runs about 25-30 a month, not including training washouts. Company does not publish training washouts but it’s less than Or around 10%. So that’s about a net gain of 20 pilots per month, enough to grow the fleet by 2 planes a month...last time they were hiring 55 pilots a month we were growing by 2 planes a month (first 200s then 700s and 900s)...
