Personally, I think if your mom or dad has been working for the airline for many years and a son or daughter gets on quicker for that reason. Well, good for them. No difference than legacy entrance/acceptance in college.

I'm 41 now and a 737CA. Holding 756 CA on last bid. Anything else you need to know?
Who did you work for prior to CAL. Was it one of the continental express carriers when they got CAL number? thanks.

I think it's a little different because they aren't going to college when they are 14 or 15, they are going at the same time as everyone else. after they've graduated high school.

Sorry to interrupt your conversation but I just couldn't get past this. What is legacy entrance/acceptance in college? Again, sorry for interrupting.

Thanks in advance

cheers

No problem. When you have family that is Alum the entrance /acceptance formula is generally easier to get in.
