What are the plans internally to ramp up recruiting?

See the above mentioned agreement between Pinnacle and possibly several universities.

With only 16 900's in ATL as of now, it seems like I might not get to fly much but I wouldn't have to commute. I'm still outside looking in and am not really sure what to expect at this point. What's the commute ATL-JFK like?

FWIW, the last vacancy (11-2) was revised and 3 FO ATL spots where given to very junior guys, they are either finishing training or just popped out of it not too long ago.

My guess is most of the guys that wanted to go to ATL that where hired before the "crisis" have already gotten it.

Also keep in mind that ATL has been very senior on the FO side. Lots of guys are going to be upgrading this year, prolly a big part of them out of ATL to other bases. That will always free up some FO seats for new guys wanting to go there...

I'm going to be in the 2/28 class.

I former instructor of mine was a Mesaba furlough that started at Pinnacle in August. He was awarded the CRJ900/ATL just last week. I'm hoping to get ATL sometime soon. I know it won't be out of training.

DL - which interview did you attend? I was at the Feb 2 interview. I have the 3/14 class. I made a post asking for anyone who's in the 3/14 class but no one confirmed. I wonder how many in a class? And if the new contract allows for single occupancy at the hotel.

I interviewed on 2/16. During the interview they told us that they wanted us in the Feb 28th class if we could make it. I got a call yesterday confirming I was in the 2/28 class.

That's great. I'll be a couple of weeks behind you but I'm sure we'll run into each other. Have you received a "training packet" yet or anything telling you where to be and what time etc?
