The new sit-based part of the interview will be a mock of incompetent gate agents, load masters, fuelers, and flight attendants. Jet bridge air will be inop, as well as your APU. You'll be graded on how you deal with the frustration of inaccurate counts, no takeoff data, and incorrect fueling, all while a passenger is swilling his own booze, a baby is having a heat stroke, and you're sweating so hard that you can't grip your own pen. Enjoy!!!

New part of the interview is to sit in the cafeteria from midnight until 9 in the morning. This simulates the red eye flying you'll be doing. M&Ms will be handed out as your only meal, because that is all we have to eat on the plane. You'll then walk from the GO to the airport to simulate the walk in Atlanta (when we land off of redeyes, the trains don't run and is a 45 minute walk to the van.) You'll then sign your 2 year con-tract. Emphasis on con.
Best advice ever. Go to any regional that has flow. You'll make more money and won't have to pay for your own hotel during training.

Welcome! Don't let anyone here rain on your parade because you didn't go directly to one of the big three. They didn't either, but anonymous forums empower them to speak about which things they know not.
But you better understand that we will likely strike before we get a penny out of this joint. That is, if we get released and no hotheads screw us over with an illegal work action. I do believe, however, that most all of us get it; we have to play by the rules to be able to exploit all the rules of the RLA (being released to self help). And be prepared for scheduling to trample our reserve rules simply because you're too new to know them all. They prey on probation guys.
All that said, this place is, for me, far far better than the regionals.
