As a single person, no I don't know. Besides with all the bonuses the company is giving, it shouldn't be an issue paying the extra cost.

Can you inquiry about the status? How quick they contact your employer?

That's $1200 a year, not a small increase. So we were told a small increase, what we were never told was, "2% increase unless you have a family, in that case it's almost 50%". Ok, I see your logic, let them tack on cost, because we're rolling in dough at ENVOY.

Can someone please give some insight to these questions?
I live near ORD, so would like to be based there. I'm guessing the e145 is the safest plane to fly to be ORD based, yes? What is the basic reserve sentence for different equipment in ord? Any comments on quality of life in ord? Thanks.

In the beginning your quality of life will be awful, but if things keep moving it will get better. I would be a junior lineholder but choose to be senior on reserve since I live in base. I am home more that way, though I do have more uncertainty. Reserve is tolerable when you live in base, though it is better when you have some people below you. Reserve lines have 11 days off per month.

I have no idea how long you'll be on reserve, it just depends on how many are hired after you. Nobody knows the exact number or placement of new hires in future months, but in general things will keep moving for the better. Best of luck.

Thanks for the info. Have recent hires seen all airframes? I wonder if the crj/145/175 would be better for ORD. I know recent trends do not have any impact on future ones, I'm just curious. Thx.

CRJ/145 for ORD. Current classes are 145/CRJ only. 175 not expected to be offered until DEC/JAN.

They won't bother or care.

Until she gets sick and starts racking up 100k medical bills, then they'll investigate, and deny her claim, because of your fraudulent coverage.

Default AA WO carriers bonus.

Hello guys first of all, let me thank you for all the useful information you have been posting on the forum.This is my first post as I'm mostly a newbie. I have tried with the search function and haven't been able to find something. I'm considering all 3 of the WO carriers; My question is if I go the cadet pipeline route do I still get the sign in bonus of $15k?
Is there anything that specifically says that by signing for the pipeline you can't get the bonus?

Thank you guys in advance any information will be greatly appreciated.
