Is that when they told you about the DXB codeshare and operating the DL 717s?

Well UAL (and AA I believe) use iPads. So that doesn't make sense.

On the Contract Facebook page someone posted a screenshot of the ERJ FO opentime. I have never seen so much open time, let alone it was all 200% pay

If my memory serves me well, I received $600 per fortnight until the completion of IOE. Others here may correct me if I'm mistaken. It bears mention that I'm on the CRJ side of the house.

But this will all be solved when the new TA goes through, or so they told all of us during the interview. All will be well.....

I'm a little fuzzy on the details however I believe your guarantee starts after a successful checkride. Hotel rooms are covered till the end of IOE, after which you are entitled to 4 moving days. Once again I'm only familiar with the ASA/CRJ side of the company.
