Oh sweet! Yeah I think the "buddy passes" are D3 and the passes we get are D1 or D2 i think.

Say you're engaged, not married. Does the health benefits go just to you since you aren't married or can you select that it goes to your fiancee?

Like everything in life, if you're not married...you're single.

For Travel Benefits you can sign her up as your travel companion. Now she will be using the pass bank that your parents use. (I believe is 12 D2s a yr).

Once you get married and you send the paperwork to the company. She will get unlimited flying and you can sign her up into the health plan.

I may be wrong,BUT I think registered companions have unlimited d2. They do apply an imputed one way income. Basically they put a value on the registered companion flying free, like miami to ny might be 55 bucks. Then you pay income tax on it, it's applied to your income as if you were paid it, but your not paid it,but your taxed on it.

Just a standard airline interview. PM me for more details

The interview was very straight forward. HR and Technical portion. HR was basically a conversation. Tell me about yourself, tmit when you lead a group, tell me something about yourself not on your app, why are you someone we should hire. 30 min or so. Went back to a room where the other guys went after each portion to await the next..kind of like home base. Next for me was the tech portion. If you study jeppeson plates youll be fine. He pulled out the DFW airport diagram, asked a few questions about the symbols. Went over a simulated flight. Start here on airport diagram..what frequencies to use. Taxi to the intersection, whats the avail t/on distance. Brief departure, brief arrival, read metar, asked can we fly this appriach with this wx? Asked some basic questions after. What is V1,V2? Speed requirements in B,C, and D. Fuel requirements. When you need an alternate. And that was it. 30 min.

After all that. Went back to "home base" and waiting for a bit. Got accepted. Did some paperwork and finger prints and then they give you a voucher for the cafeteria for $12.50.(really good food. $12.50 is more than enough btw).

Study jepp plates and basic ifr stuff. They dont expect you to know everything on the jepps or any 121 regs but they do expect you know all the basic 91 regs. All the interviewers were current envoy pilots. Very relaxed interview. Great group of guys.

Thanks for the info JC. Do you sign a contract that same day they do your fingerprints or how does that work. As far as I know it's a 1 year commitment

JCPearce8 06-18-2016 01:31 PM

Not sure about the whole commitment thing yet. That doesn't really bother me to much, just wanna fly jets and get paid lol. The day of the interview they will either accept or deny you. more than likely accept. you will sign some paperwork and then fingerprints. they give you a conditional offer the day of the interview. this means that you are hired but if the background check comes back bad or they call your previous employers and something goes wrong they don't have to continue with the hiring process. From the conditional offer to the official offer is around 2-5 weeks i think

There are so many reasons not to attach yourself to any of the AA wholly-owned carriers right now. Do some more research. Having flight benefits a couple years early is a silly reason to sign a deal with these guys.
