Kingairfun had this to say to answer your question...
HAL does not pay for hotel until you go to sim. Plan on 5 days of Indoc. And then roughly 2 weeks of systems, with a day or two off every 4-5 days or so....I think in roughly 17 days I did 13 class days... So plan on a minimum 3 weeks of getting your own place...

I did Phase II back in June and got the email a few months back stating my credentials were still up for further review. Just can't get a read on whether this is good or bad. Sort of just stopped wondering for now.....

it took me by surprise too, I honestly don't know why they differentiate between the fleets on that. When I asked, the HR dept told me it's because you'll do all your work in HI. In effect, you can commute on any of the equipment, albeit it's much harder on the 717 due to the nature of their schedules... The bottom line, the HR dept asked me for my HNL address which I already had in place since I planned to have a permanent apartment here anyway... the worse part however is you'll end up having Hawaii Income Tax withheld and if your current state doesn't allow for a deduction for it, you may end up paying income tax in both states...

If by the time the next window opens up (rumored to be in May or June), you are not called, then you'll have to reapply... until then its basically a point system. IF you are above the minimum, but not high enough to rise above people who keep being selected out of Phase II, you'll just hover towards the bottom...
Some people score high enough and with in weeks of their first P 1&2 they're in class... others wait a year, or have to reapply.

In my research I've found that pay at Hawaiian does seem to progress faster than many other Legacy carriers. And with the small pilot numbers and expected growth/attrition, many hired over the last 2 years may be in a great position in a few years. Far ahead of any peers at other Legacies.

the list which is on our MEC site is dated from 1/2011 which is when we had approximately 450 of the current 605 pilots... on that list, there is about 10-12 retirements a year for the next 3-4 years and then a pick up to 15-20 thru the later part of the decade.. I asked the woman who runs our ALPA office if they can update the list to better show the picture of the current seniority list but she said she was told the company refused to continue to provide this data due to privacy reasons... so it's hard to tell exactly how it looks now.
My personal observation is that this is a relatively young airline compared to many... there are A LOT of 40ish year old captains with more than 10 years on the property and quite a few of the new hires from the past 3 years were int their 20's and early 30's..
That's just the reality from what I've seen.

I wonder why the company considers the information to be a breach of privacy? I would think they could just release the mandatory retirment numbers without listing names so nobody's privacy is violated that way. Anyhow, thanks for trying!
