If possible ride their jumpseat several times to get a taste of what it's like. Third, are the new hires at Frontier still going to be mad at SWA crews on the van ride to/from airport?

Ok, you are making north of 2 GRAND everytime you put your uniform on. And getting 18 plus days off per month! That about settles this little argument! Lol. Or cry outloud rather.

I can't imagine our newhires being mad at you. Congrats on doing so well for yourself.

Those are awesome salary numbers. However personally I have zero desire to join swa, never had any. I hope your new contact is even better in every section possible, and you guys pull in even more cash. Our negotiations open up next March and we need to shoot for highest wages we can.

On a side note, do you guys ever talk about anything else besides good old military days when you guys at the bar or flying?

No worries, SWA is not for everyone. Personally would go to Delta over SWA today. Just wanted to give the real numbers of what one can expect, at least today. Who knows tomorrow.

Classes WILL continue to run all year but will get smaller during holidays.

Did your source say anything about 330s and more airplanes coming?

I can substantiate his statement. Directly from DW and GG this week. No class in November, then classes of only 6 until the Spring, around April-ish.

I'm confused. So is this an increase in projected hiring? A decrease? Or just a adjustment in the training schedule to achieve similar numbers?
