No, it’s not a fact. Yet. Let’s see what happens.

We have heard in the past that classes would be a certain size, only to see them between 10-20. That’s a fact.

When I was in recurrent last month he laid out the class sizes for the rest of the year. So far they have been spot on. He said 40 in December I believe.

We’ll see.

Last years December class actually was yuuge, 30 or so if that’s any predictor of this year’s. Of course there’s normally just one class in December.

My wild guess is that it would take a seniority of 5 years or greater to hold the A220 until about half are on property. Have they narrowed down the domiciles the A220 will be based at? I know BOS is one of them. Either way I would focus on either the 190 or 320 for the foreseeable future if you’re about to begin training.

BOS will be the first base which probably means the only base for atleast the first 3 years. No point in opening a second base until we actually start taking a bunch. Only take around 15 the first 3 years then it ramps up in 2023 and beyond.

My guess would be jfk next as they utilize the extra seats to maximize the slots.

I would imagine mco190 will be the last base to disappear as the 190’s keep chugging around the Caribbean.

All just my personal analysis of course.

I’m in the December class...HR guy told me this week it’s 40. With the plan of 50 in January and 30 in February. Hope it holds up! Of course EVERY airline changes its mind daily it seems, so no sense worrying about that.

I hope so. But it’s not in Mint as of yet. (Then again, neither was the last class, it only showed one FO on start day).
