Two west coast questions:
1) OAK is going very junior in the class drops, but is it likely to become more senior once it's established and fully staffed? i.e. if someone is hired in the next few months do they have a chance to get there within a couple years?
2) Is LAX super senior?

Thank you!

1) If hired within the next few months and awarded either the 757 MEM or the 767 MEM or IND (assuming can’t hold OAK) then one would stand a very good chance of being awarded OAK on next bid. No one knows when that will be and nothing is guaranteed.

2) LAX is senior but has become more junior in the right seat over the last few years. LAX is currently only an MD11 base so the future is a little less clear than OAK.

Good luck.

Thank you! Good to know. I have an invite and am trying to guess my chances for OAK (if I’m fortunate enough to get hired). Hope OAK takes a little longer to “fill up” so there’s some spots left in a few months.

What’s the latest & greatest on CGN 75? How senior is it for FOs to make it out there?

Filled up to 90% on System Bid 20-02, so there are a few New Hire slots when they offer them. But even the guys on the current bid award/training letter have not been able to transition over there due to COVID restrictions.

Not sure if this is the right thread to ask, but recently received a CJO and was told to expect class in August. I am getting married in October and worried about timing class around wedding and honeymoon. Does anyone have experience with this or know who to contact in training department to talk to about this?

if you started in the 5 August 767 class (BI date would be prior to that) your projected finish date is 20 October. That would include IOE and could be a little longer or shorter based on LCA availability. Sim availability can also change that date. You may be able to work with the IOE scheduler to get a week off after simulators but I would not count on it.

Sounds like best course of action is to ask for class after the event. I have heard that classes are usually not happening during the peak through holidays. Is that still the case? When do they stop?
