This has been addressed in the seniority section while working towards a JCBA but currently old practice remains.

Glad you cleared that up Ken or your phone would be blowing up with me ready to grieve the $hite out of that policy. Class date vs DOH has screwed me out of vacation weeks

Vacation, 401K match, 401K vesting, and the fact that every year we wait an extra 2-3 months for the next step on the pay scale. You won't find a single 9E pilot that isn't ticked off by the DOH vs. Seniority Date system.

You won't know until you show up. Worst case you would commute for a few months.

Reality hurts. Rule 1 of the airlines: Don't believe what you are told until you are in the seat doing it.


You should know this mooney... ;-)
