Well 3 years ago the sales pitch at the job fair I went to was - 2 Year upgrade, contract right around the corner, growth growth growth - and you can work a bit extra and make $100 grand. I didn’t come here to have my contractually guaranteed vacation taken away after I spend $4000 on tickets etc.

Why did you come here ?

It’s frustrating to see how the company is handling thier F up, but they are banking on creating a divide between the pilot group and hoping the pilots will slip up. No one accepts a job blind and everyone has thier reasons, but new hires now should have a pretty good idea about the toxic environment created by management by doing a little research. This just shows thier severe lack planning that they were hoping to blame the pilots for in thier previous company letters. Let the union do thier job and lets do ours. Don’t be the next name in a company letter.

Just a refresher on the vacation section. If your vacay ends up being canceled all non refundable cost for that vacation shall be refunded by the company.
Still absolutely insane they are thinking about doing this, but at least you can get your money back.

26 for the July class, they wanted 30.

Where are people staying for the interview?


Where are people staying during training that doesn't break the bank?


AirlinePilotCentral says the junior CAs in DEN, ORD, and MCO are 2007 hires. Is that right?

As of the beginning of June there were 23 scheduled. The third week of June they added some more and had 28 scheduled, this included at least two of the original 23 not joining the July class. One moved to the august class.
27 showed up to class.

There is a Hampton and home wood suites across the street from HQ.

Searching Airbnb, or similar site and sharing a place is about the most cost effective. Aside from a crash pad.

This is based on the most current bid packet I could find in Comply 365–our internal document distribution system.

DEN = June, 2007
ORD = January, 2015
MCO = April, 2015
LAS = January, 2015

Pretty much where you are now or any other airline. Sorry, couldn’t stand to lower my sarcasm quotient for today.
