Seniority question
Let's say Pilot A gets a job offer on June 1st, and Pilot B gets a job offer on July 1st. They both get the same class date of August 1st. Does Pilot A have any seniority on Pilot B based on the fact that he was offered a job first? (I realize he might have seniority by other factors, I am strictly talking about whether or not the time of the job offer has any bearing on seniority)....thanks for your help...

Usually no, I have seen age and social security numbers used to decide seniority within a class but never hire date. Each airline however decides what method they will use. Ask the airline you have the question about.

You are not hired on those dates. You are offered employment. Your hire date is the day you report to new hire class. (Legally different and all Offers of employment are written this way for that reason. If you were hired on the date that you were offered employment then we would have guys that were hired but not put in to INDOC collecting longevity without ever working for a company)

Yes they do. It is a intra-company transfer and therefore they go above all of the off the street guys. No WO corporations to not fall under the intra company definition. So if you come from XJ you restart everything.
They will only do it for employees of Delta Air Lines, and not their subsidiaries.
