190/195 and 220's. Your statement is true. As of now day trips vs. traditional trips.

170/190/195 types. not sure if they've opened it to non types, but I DO know they've recently hired non-typed.

220 sims? not sure, man. sorry..
Cool, thanks for the info. You think new hires would have their choice of base, namely TPA, or is that one becoming full and people being sent to others?

yeah.. sorry. TPA is becoming senior, and ORF is looking junior. Having said that, we're supposed to open new bases in the coming year, so who knows.. there could be a reshuffling of the deck by then.

Thats a lot easier than the process AA, SWA, Frontier and others have gone to. Nothing really “reciprocal” about the process anymore as they can just walk up to one of our gates (or Delta’s gates) 15 minutes prior to push and get a jump seat form and walk onto the plane.

I generally agree except for those times like a week ago when our account was locked for 3 days.

While I hope breeze succeeds, do your research. Not bad mouthing and I want them to succeed. Company is very honest that if you’re hired into the 195, the lines are designed for living in base, not commuters. Also think about having a 3 yr seat lock on a startup legacy fleet at low FO pay rates as inflation rises. Doesn’t lend itself to much money or movement into the left seat on said fleet. Especially if line reductions occur due to economics, Covid etc…If one can swing it, great. To each their own. I wish all Breeze pilots and the company well and success. Just food for thought.

Cool, thanks for the info. I'll be on the look out for the application opening and hopefully get a chance to talk to them.

More of an equipment lock. If you are hired into the E-Jet you can't move to the A220 for 3 years. You can move seats on the E-Jet.
