Nope, the contract language is pretty clear on that. Company and MEC would have to mutually agree to something like that, which they could do, but as it stands right now, he'd have two choices: take the top pref or stay where he currently is.

Yeah. And based on my luck with the EFB email, probably not going to happen. Back to the drawing board...

Default Training schedule for new hires

For the guys who are in training or just got off training.
How's the schedule like for the initial, Sims and IOE? Are there gaps in between training modules? Is everything done in MSP?

Sorry in advance, FNG here.

Any BTV commuters out there?

From what I can tell there's two to four 9E flights per day to LGA, and a couple JetBlue to JFK. I'm trying to asses the feasibility of commuting from Burlington as I don't want to move to NYC. I know it's drivable in a pinch but that's obviously not desirable.

Depends if you are 200 or 900, 200 everything was pretty rapid fire, started FTD the following Tuesday after ground school ended, sims for 200 are split between Phoenix and msp, 900 is all in msp. But plan on splitting your time for 200 between out there and msp. Sims you pretty much go 3-4 days on and a day or two break. After sims I had about 5 days before my first OE trip, as per contract So expect very shorts breaks between the start of ground school and OE. You can also expect to do your OE out of Detroit or msp.

I know a couple guys who do it. One just drives, the other rides on us most times. Seems pretty doable. You have number one priority on our metal for the jumpseat so that helps a lot.

Thanks.

Are the loads usually pretty full?

I'm considering the move up there from Southern NH where I would be commuting out of BOS or MHT. I know Boston has a ton of flights but it's 1.5 hours by car or bus from where I live.

I know commuting will suck no matter where it is, but I'm trying to feel out just how much suck I'm willing to endure.

Just enough suck to feed the subsequent squeeze bang and blow

Squeeze max experience
BANG the Big Bang move to Legacy
Blow by the regional bottom feeders

Thanks for the info! What's the difference in training time and reserve time between the 900 and 200?

Well, the 900 guys typically aren't as bright, so training takes about 25% longer.
