Bl******* that’s because Xjet mgmt didn’t give the proper WARN Act notification (60 days). They were short by 2 days

What is actually going on at XJT? One of my Aussie buddies there told me you guys are still hiring guys from Australia and giving them sponsorship papers, and this is literally as of this week! He showed me the messages from their little chat group of guys who are being given the paperwork to prove it. And even he isn't sure how this is happening still. Apparently OO stopped it here.

Just to verify, hiring new pilots or renewing pilots already on property? The Aussies have to get their paperwork renewed every 2 years and it's a dick move to throw them out on the street by not giving them paperwork to renew their visa (IMHO).

It’s the government that renews Visa’s not airlines... Immigration processing centers are not open right now..

Sorry guys, just to clarify (was half asleep last night when I wrote) it’s an initial brand new Visa. Not a renewal of a Visa. They are also overseas, in Australia I assume, so guessing maybe their Visa processing is open. I was shown XJT is providing them the documentation to get these new Visas still, didn’t see how many though.

I mean maybe XJT are anticipating something happening sooner rather than later and expecting to need them. Just found it amazing that any airlines would even be considering new foreign workers in this climate, as much as I love our Aussie pilots.

Oh, and agree about the guys being renewed! Not cool to bring them here and not renew them.

Been spooky quiet on XJT threads. What's new, are the July lines showing any hope?
