You you make more than 62, but dont count on it.
Reserve maybe at home though not ususally-only if it is really slow.
All travel is coach.
Upgrade will probably be quicker now with the new a/c. A few 60+ coming back from the fe seat I don't see them being enough to matter.
Send in your resume.
Its okay though I would recommend keeping all future options open.
The first two are from Malaysia thats why they are coming soon, the rest from JAL.

I wonder how many "Old School" guys will bid it?

The bid is out-not in e-mail yet, class starts Jan 28th. They can call training for the bid if they want. Everyone was surprised to hear this happen so fast after years of rumors. The Malaysia deal seemed to come out of the blue. The bid is available on the company site under training department.

The have the highest thrust CF6's produced max TOW of 875K. Have fun with them the should be great planes. CN should be 24315/738 on the first and the second should be 24405. Look on plane spotters and the will still show being held be Boeing Leasing.
Thank HDG!

I see upgrades are less than 2 years, do they anticipate that number to change, especially since the have new aircraft coming on property?
Thank you in advance for your information and advice,
No classics are going away, so as far as it looks, expansion.
The last classic upgrade class for Feb 08, has a guy hired in March 07 in it,
11 months, pretty quick.
These -400's will really mix things up, I ran into an SO, he said, he and two others he knew of would like to bid back to CA if they can, I am not sure how that is working out. So not many, still alot of upgrades available here.?
send your resume in, see how it goes, good luck.
