3600TT
3300PIC
737 type
Times approximate. All tactical military. Got hired during the last window. In my class of 24 about 1/3 pure military, 1/3 pure civilian, and 1/3 had both backgrounds. Hours from not that many, like me, to a lots for some of the civvie regional flyers.
I think if you're over the minimum requirements, you shouldn't sweat the hours. Good luck... And hurry!

Interesting, I applied the previous two windows and this one. The previous two I did not have a degree and got the pilot credentials link. Now I have my degree and more time 8800 TT no type and did not get the link? I did however, go onto pilot credentials and update my existing account. Thoughts?

Sounds like the emails with the links are still going out. Keep the faith!

FYI... From Southwest...

Thank you for your question. You did everything correctly. You need to apply to both websites to be considered for hire. We are having a few IT issues on the Southwest.com website. This is delaying an email that will be sent out to all qualified applicants directing them to the pilot credentials site. The emails should be going out as we speak but please pass on to all your friends that they can go ahead and begin filling out the profile at their earliest convienience. As you know, its a long process and we want everyone to have plenty of time to complete it.
