This time it does say either Friday or Saturday in the notice, but I was under the impression that no one in Crew Planning wanted to work on a Saturday.

Will the company have the insight to use this lull before the 900s really start arriving to start training a lot of 900 captains? So could 70 900 vacancies actually mean they add a substantial amount of new captains?

As far as FO backfilling, who knows as it will likely be tied to balancing the captain staffing. Overall system wide, yes we are adding captains... just not in the traditional places this company came from... The new reality of this company is New York or Atlanta... A new hire shouldn't even consider MSP or DTW as a possibility at this point.

No it won't. Also Dtw and Msp not impossible for new hires..... You forgot a lot of us senior FO's in dtw and Msp are starting to bite the upgrade bait. |

In DTW a new hire may be able to hold a line before they upgrade but if one wants MSP they should look into Skywest. I've personally steered 3 people to Skywest in the last year alone and they were all MSP within 2 months of hitting the line. Telling potential new hires that MSP is attainable is just a lie. There are hundreds of pilots here already that want MSP. On top of that, it's shrinking. |

Remember that person was an alternate, the most junior awarded was actually a 2011 hire. Either way bid for what you want because you never know!
