I can assure you that applying now would be in your best interest. I'm told we are still reviewing apps, scheduling interviews, and extending CJOs - which are good for up to a year. Beat the summer rush as we open the gates on hiring again soon.


Good luck, this is a great place to fly!

I applied and was told they will keep my application to give me a call in the near future as all of their classes are full until late 2019.

The classes are full right now... I Bet people bail in the next 10 mo the as other airlines hire.

I don't know why anyone would come here now. Zero growth, eternal reserve, quick upgrade long gone, and a failing DGI program. But those recruiters sure do know how to fool em.

Then why are you still here?

Apolgies......not my intent!

Money probably, seniority etc

Out of all of the regionals how many are actually growing? I don't follow what the others are doing that closely. So other than replacing older ac is Go Jet the only one set to grow? Seems like Skywest shuffles ac around and replaces older equipment. I just haven't heard any real hot movement anywhere. So unless I'm missing something I feel like we are doing just fine and the day will come maybe not as quick as some may want that we will get some more flying. Feel free to gripe but overall 9E is a great place and I wouldn't discourage anyone from coming here. With that said anyone interested do your research and do what's best for yourself and your family.

This is not directed at anyone specific.

Expressjet- plus they allegedly may possibly may not get a flow to United

Regional flying is just reshuffling due to scope. It’s not expanding in any way.

We at ExpressJet expect more news to follow by this summer on what's going to happen with either an improved CPP or a flow. Right now we have a pool of guys that are in the CPP program waiting on a class date. That pool has been shrinking, and there hasn't been any new people introduced into the CPP program by taking the Hogan test yet. This is what's fueling that something better may be coming - drain the existing pool before starting something new.


As far as growth goes, we operate like 80 E145's right now, but we can operate up to 126 if we can staff it. We have the 20 CRJ-200's, and 25 E175SC's coming. We're going from 100 to 125 and up to 171 airplanes, or a 70% increase. We also reserved a large block of tail numbers that end in UX, and the rumor is we're going to have up to 60 E175's by the beginning of 2020.

Good Lord, insta captains incoming.

Ah, the irony of potentially seeing EDV guys go down that road in the near future.

Unfortunately for us, upgrade right now means NYC, and NYC means reserve, and reserve means barely flying. I'm trying to be optimistic, but if this "when" turns to "if," that could change. Right now it seems like the new jets are going to Skywest, the career progression is going to children still in high school, and the E+ and F class seats are going to... well, my last 3 positive space flights they seem to have rather had them empty.

It already went to “if”...

I’ve been hearing lately it’s back to “when” and that date has been moved up from what it was. There’s a reason why they are hiring a ton of mechanics in Atlanta right now.

Potentially for an increase in 200s :rolleyes:

Avro is coming back.

I mean officially. Not on a forum riddled with unverifiable rumors.

Russ was officially in front of my face using the work “if”...

That could be because Delta wants to work on other company's regional jets, and make more profit.

Yes actually that would make much more sense....we take some of our gently used 200s from arizona, and Skywest orders more 175 SC, or new 900s to replace gojet 700s and park some of their 200s( or not)

More 200 LCP positions open...

Lol, gold standard.

Hey look at it this way, something is better than nothing.

I never went anywhere :D

The airplane not you. They were discussing old 200s coming back

Isn't Delta maxed on 50 seat scope?

I know there's some 50 seat to 76 seat trade math in their scope but I'd doubt Delta management would use it to get more 50 seat airplanes and less 76.

I didn't come up with the rumor, ask them. My rumor was the avros coming back, and that'll be a 2:1 trade in for the 76 seats

With how many 200 LCPs there are, this sure adds some questions. Why would we add more 200 guys when we already have half the lcps sitting around not doing OE.

That exchange was tied to the 717, which is over. Yes, they're maxed, or very close to the 125 50 seat limit. That's not to say another carrier wouldn't park 50 seat flying, to staff more lucrative 2 class flying...

Bingo... especially if said carrier's 200 flying was suffering and could easily be covered by 9E... :cool:

Losing five 200 LCPs -
2 to DL
1 to UA
2 unknown

This is awesome. Congrats to them.

The company is going to allow reserve drops with a red grid down to some other threshold. I guess that's about the best they could do, what else can we complain about?

The finish of the new fridge in ATL is brushed stainless. That look is sooooooo 2013.

Pfahhhh!!

70seaters instead of 50 seaters? Still think we should have an all out brawl against something each month;
Mar- take the trash out of cockpit you slob, it should never be above half full
Apr- stop flipping ipad mount upside down, especially when the rack was remounted to center.
May- hats belong on your head, not down to your ears like a ball cap.
June- stop leaving the seat full up and leaned back all the way. You're bad and you should feel bad.
July- to drink the coffee, or not to drink the coffee.
August- I won't talk football if you won't talk about your kids
September- all slam clickers put on blast
October- does the mm1 go under the clip or not.
November- stop putting pens in the pen holders from hotels
December-everyone has to be nice to each other.
January-buy a new shirt with your stipend money you cheapo.
Feb- tip the van driver, why and why not.

Would like this schedule sticky'ed so we all know the plan

Let the bloodbath for the Atlanta openings commence!!

Good... good... I hope they go junior and push me up... but I'm betting they go senior.

Probably the latter and no backfilling of lateral transfers...

It’s only been over a year of waiting for new openings....
