B318,
I read what Pixelflying said to you about the 2000 TT. I know the HR folks are working right now on updating the XOJET page on APF with all the info interested folks wish to have.
What I’m posting below is at odds with what Pixel (not trying to call you out Pixel…my apologies brother ) but it is what is being officially advertised by XO as the mins.
The info below comes directly from the XO Careers section that states the following about hiring mins:
MINIMUM EXPERIENCE REQUIREMENTS
Obviously we have folks who are applying that have well above the mins and I don’t say that to discourage anyone from applying, just the times we live in. If interested, I’d apply as long as one meets the mins.
Hope that helps and good luck!

I work the 15/13. I had vacation 3 days in February. March had 18 working days as the 15/13 occasionally does as it slides through each month slightly differently. June included 3 days of not flying to do our 6 month sim.
Just one example

I don't see XO listed on SWA pass agreements, which means I doubt you can non rev on us. Someone correct me if I am wrong?

BTW...this would mean that family members are not included.

The non-rev pass agreement is for cabin only seats that are available for pilots only to fly on SWA. No family members are allowed to fly as part of the agreement. The agreement is based upon XOJET being one of the three “Destination 225” 135 carriers that SWA partners with to help train future SWA candidates.
XO takes a limited number of graduates from the D225 program each year (we have our first D225 graduate who came on property about 6 weeks ago).
A few folks have non-rev’d on SWA that I know of, it works just like any other pilot that works for a company that has a reciprocal agreement with SWA who wishes to non-rev on SWA except the jump seat is not an option for XO pilots.
Hope that helps.

Is there a way to find out why I didn’t pass the phone screening? The conversation seemed to go really well. I answered all the situational questions using the model ‘Safety then customer service.’ I was really happy with it, but I didn’t get selected to continue. I guess just apply again in six months to show commitment?
