Facebook marketplace is your friend. I just got a near new sofa that retails for over 2k for $250. Tables and chairs and all sorts of stuff is in there too. I can give you the number of a mattress guy who will deliver a queen size mattress and base to your apartment for less than $300 and it's brand new. Got bedroom drawers from Walmart for $20 each.

PM me if you like

Hey sorry for replying slow, i live at an apartment called The Enclave in JC, its affordable if you split it with one or two guys- i fortunately have a gf with a much better paying job than me hahaha but id say if $ isnt too big an issue the apartments in that back corner of JC are all very comfortable. None are furnished that i know of, but as the previous poster said FB marketplace is your friend.

Some apartments to name besides the Enclave include Soho lofts, cast iron lofts, DVORA, portside towers (affordable option), and 295J apts. These are all 'luxury' apartments that come packed with ammenities and for 2-3 pilots to share would all be nice- again depending on what you can afford. If $ is more of an issue, these places can still work if you go for a 2d2ba with 4 pilots. Hope this helps.

Default Wingman Contact info

Hey,

I’m very interested in joining the wingman program. I haven’t received a response to my email to recruiting([email protected]=12pt).
Would any of you GoJet pilots mind sending me a PM with contact information to join and offer any insight into life at GoJet.

thanks!

How long have you been on reserve for @ G7 ? Is it true that you can swap your bid lines around to get maximum time off ?

Give it 6 months, and you can add GoJet to the list.

Follow up question. Are most new hires getting assigned Newark and if so how long is reserve. Is ORD possible as a new hire? How is commuting to either from MSP? Thank you for any replies😁

Reserve time in ORD is longer than EWR. I was only on reserve for 1 month before holding a line and now about 50% on the seniority list for FOs in EWR. All new hires will get EWR, you’ll get ORD if they’re spots open for it.

Do the hours gained during IOE count towards the 100 required consolidation hours?
