Yeah, did the company say to expect a supplemental bid? I seem to remember reading that. That will tell us a lot more as far as the hiring numbers.

Rich said to expect one in April. Apparently Crew Planning is waiting on the word from flight ops. I'm guessing the legal team is requiring them to wait until after the vote, which would be the end of April/beginning of May for a bid publishing at the earliest. The next scheduled bid is June, so I wouldn't be surprised if they just wait until then.

I've heard that too, but I'm not sure what difference the vote makes for staffing. Either way, they need to operate the flights. And there's no instantaneous change to our work rules or pay.

So why do you think they would wait for that?

Personal wild a** guess is they plan on opening a FLL 190 base, and maybe an international division as well. These are pretty big changes, and I'm thinking the legal department doesn't want anything drastic happening during laboratory conditions for the vote.

I'm thinking they will wait til June because it will be a fuster cluck trying to sort out two system bids happening within a month of each other (assuming one end of April and another beginning of June) with regards to who is supposed to go to training first, and transfers, new base/equip statuses, international, blah blah.

Yep, I was completely wrong. I had emailed Rich two weeks ago and never received a response, so the only information I had was the rumor mill. But I'm glad it made him 'chuckle'.

RJ, I think you interviewed the day I did. I know of one waiting from Feb 6. I know of two Feb 25 morning that got classes - one April 9th and one April 30. My contact in the 1030 group has not been given a date.
