What's the training schedule for indoc and systems? M-F? M-Sat? What hotel do they use most often in PHX?
It's usually M-S, the time depends on classroom availability, i.e. how many new hire and FA classes are in progress. FAs usually have their own classrooms, but my recent trip to the schoolhouse was everything overflowing and they were using one of "our" classrooms for FAs.

Accommodations for new hires seem to be the Best Western by Arizona Mills, single occupancy, then the Sleep Inn; crappy internet, no food options nearby except Denny's and the occasional bed bug while you're in Sims/IOE.

The Training Department is great, study hard, work your backside off, see u on line!

Right now it seems orientation is on Wednesday with Indoc running Thursday through Tuesday with Sunday off. Best Western by the Mall for Indoc. STL for systems in the EJET. CRJ is in PHX.

How does a non-publicly traded company get bought?

Heard today that LAX flying will be gone next summer. Those 9 planes will be moved to DFW. DFW will have 37 total planes (28 from CLT), PHX only 18. So sounds like all those guys who now hold PHX from the last award won't be holding it after next summer when PHX shrinks yet again if you are presently 90 or greater on the roster.

Hmmmmmm.......'90 or greater on the roster'; not really passing the smell test.
Plenty of senior FOs in PHX ready to upgrade, some are waiting to upgrade to the EJet. Did you figure this into the 90 number ??

quietly and with money with an agreement for a long term feed to a mainline.

PSA and MESA to merge, two private held companies.

90 and above is currently around the 320 Global mark. I don't know who you think are Senior FO's anymore, but those senior FO's who are still 320 global or less (12 years plus), are able to currently hold PHX Captain, have already been awarded the upgrade if they wanted it. Anyone junior to 320 global after next summer either Captain or FO, doesn't matter as they will no longer be able to hold PHX Captain unless they are less then 320 global...make sense? There are about 30 current captains in PHX who will be flushed to DFW next summer already below the 320 mark when those planes move. The Ejet makes no difference to any of this. If they don't bid CRJ CA PHX now, it won't matter next summer because unless they have been here for 12 plus years, they still won't hold PHX as Captain. Your post actually makes no sense at all... 90 and smell test??? What?? Talking about FO's holding out?? What are you talking about dude? 90 is staffing for 18 planes. If you are 90 or greater on the roster, 12 plus years, you won't be in PHX as a Captain. It's that simple... lol Last I checked every FO in PHX who has been at Mesa for 12 plus years have either been awarded it, or failed upgrade to many times and are lifer FO's. They are not holding out for the EJet becasue they would already have been awarded it. Not sure what you are smelling. Maybe yourself??? lol
