June SWA DB

I've heard a wide range of dates for the June Decision Board. Anyone heard a definitive date?

I think they said last week in June, in part due to some Chief pilots having vacation in the beginning of the month

Last week of June is what I hear, also. I was just hoping it had changed.

I interviewed May 17th.

I have no idea about June specifically but the DB normally goes on the Tuesday closest to the 15th of the month according to the PD. That can change based on different what's going on that month.

End of June--as in 26 June? Man, I don't know if I can wait that long. That would be 7 weeks between DBs. Wow.

My interview group was told it will be the third week of June and that it usually happens on a Wednesday. That would make the next one June 20th.

How many days prior to the DB do they cut off the interview groups that do through the DB?

The secret is getting your type rating. You don't HAVE to have one in order to get an interview, but I guarantee it really really helps.

People department rep briefed that they look at all the Non-typed applicants about once every two months. They look at the typed applicants about once every two weeks. Much smaller stack of applications!
