OHHH?! GET A LOAD OF THIS GUY?! Also, I've heard of no such new hires going directly to the 330 or 350. Can anyone else verify?

Lol. I just loved dodging Chargers and Camaros on 240 doing 100mph at 1am on my drive home. But you know.......QOL. As soon as I got past year two and more seniority, we were the hell outta there. Commuting has been wonderful and a breeze. YMMV.

They have given out WBs to people in some classes recently, but it’s not in every class. Currently closer to this:

ATL 7ERB
NYC 7ERB
LAX 73NB
MSP 73NB
NYC 73NB
DTW 320B
LAX 320B
MSP 320B
ATL 717B
DTW 717B

So no 330 or 350 slots. That's what I thought.

Last year there were a bunch of slots for 330 and 350 for day 1 new hires. However that is atypical and unlikely to happen again soon.

There were a total of seven A350 slots left over from a one off AE last year. Has not happened since and those seven remain as the A350 plugs.

It's more likely than us hiring into the 777 anytime soon.

Didn't take a whole lot to come up with this dumb statement since we aren't hiring. Ok, I'll put one out, Green Bay wins the superbowl before we hire 777 FO's again.
