Combined 2011 Hiring Info
#12
I looked online as well as saw the same thing. I did speak to the CP on the corporate side about 2 months ago and he said that he is being told that the line would be hiring in 2011 and that he was going to lose some guys to the line. He said that he would be hiring to fill those seats.

I don't know about that. I seriously doubt it though. I do know that once you have worked on the corporate side of things for 3 years that there is a flow through. I know that there were about 3 guys that were on the fence about making the jump last time around that decided to stay with corporate. After the drought of hiring I'm betting they don't take the chance again once the hiring starts. I had heard that there were at least 5 guys leaving to the freight side (not from the Corp CP though). He just said that he was going to lose some guys to Cargo (didn't specify how many).

Everyone, thought I'd start a thread where we can all combine what we know about hiring info at the majors for 2011. Any information is welcome, but please state if you're making a guess, heard a rumor, have substantiated information, etc. I'll post below what I understand the status to be, please update it with whatever additional details you may know... dates, numbers, when they'll be accepting applications, what they're looking for, etc.
Delta: Possible hiring early 2011. No idea how many.
USAirways: Possible hiring 2011. No idea how many.
United: No hiring for foreseeable future.
Continental: No hiring for foreseeable future.
American: No hiring for foreseeable future.
Southwest: ???
Fedex: ???
UPS: No hiring for foreseeable future.

I would not make any "predictions" on United until the contract is done.

Delta had 13 projected for 2010 and so far 183 have left. It won't be long until the hiring machine has to stay open full throttle for along time. They might hire then stop in 2011, but for 2012 and beyond they will have to keep the doors wide open.

At UPS we've OFFICIALLY stopped the furlough at 109 (originally planned 300 by the end of this year). The CP said all furloughed pilots would be back on the property by the end of 2013 counting for retirements ONLY.
Our scheduled are so tight, and our open time/JA ban so effective, I personally can't imagine faster recalls and some airline growth that would occur before December 2013. The implementation of the new FAA rest rules next year certainly won't call for less staffing either.
