Ok look, I hear alot of griping and whining......yeah it sucks but the problems is there are people out there that will drop the money or have the opportunity to J/S just to be able to get on with a major. So why wouldn’t management take advantage of not having to spend money?!?! I’ve heard “well why not a stby ticket”? Well if they gave the stby ticket to someone that lives in a city on the west coast that Hawaiian flies out of (and Vegas is the as far east as they go, with the exception to JFK now), you know someone would complain that they live on the east coast or mid-west and Hawaiian should ZED fare them out to the west coast. If they did that then every Tom, Dick and Harry would want to interview and then the money spent would increase and Hawaiian would get even more selective with who would get to interview. Then people would complain about that!! I know these forums; it’s an endless cycle of complaining. My advice to the pilot group…….DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT!! We complain but we don’t have any actions….that is a whole different topic.
PurpleCRJ......I interviewed and after I had time to go hang out on the beach on North Shore to surf (North Shore is an easy 45 min drive with no traffic)!! So trust me, it’s a free two/three day vacation to Hawaii for people that get to interview.
Then the comment the regionals aren’t bad........well I agree but try supporting a family on regional FO pay!!!! I’m going for the legacy carrier so I can afford to support my family. I just spent $100 on school supplies because the schools can’t afford them anymore!! The world we live in sucks economy wise.

:eek:

Might check the longitude of KPHX. Otherwise, why all the ranting and the ranting about complaining?

Sorry I should have included PHX, but my ranting still stands!!

Every Tom, Dick, and Harry DOES want an interview. lol. No, whatever, maybe your right. It is nice for employees to keep the standby list under control. I'm always trying to catch United, and there's 40+ standby's! And the added fuel burn might catch up to a smaller airline like HAL.

Good god you got that right!! United's standby list is crazy. It seems like no matter where I am trying to get to there are 50 others ahead of me going to the same place.

Anyway, this thread is a bit off topic......anyone heard back for phase three this time around?

what are the odds of getting a second chance to interview after turning down the first one?

You could try to apply again when the window opens again. Probably next year.

Yeah, once you turn it down your out. You have to wait until the next application window. I know a guy in your position and they told him next year. Good luck
