Good lord. FaceBiter where are you at. JO can't tell you a year and a half out what upgrade times will be in a year and a half. He can only tell you what they were a year and change ago when those people got hired who just upgraded. This industry will look a lot different a year or two from now. You might be a captain, you might not. Banking on the crap JO spews is like banking on some rumor you read on a forum or heard in a crew room.
JO has nothing to offer except fast upgrades. That's why he keeps the recruiters and everyone else toeing the party line of fast upgrades that may or may not happen. Of course he will keep saying that. If he said oh I don't know could be 1 year could be 5 years, he knows that will be all over the forum and no one would come here. But the reality is there is no guarantee anywhere of a 1-2 year upgrade, especially here if we don't get more flying.

With this mindset, why would you accept employment with one of the lowest paying airlines. If you're gonna be stuck in the right seat for five years, wouldn't you strive for something with better pay and work rules?

I was told if I don't get awarded PHX within 3 months to file a grievance with the union. Can someone walk me through this process?

When's your contract amendable date?

I haven't found in the contract anything that says you get Phx within 3 months. Therefore, the union will likely tell you to pack sand. Also, you're on probation for the first year anyway so you aren't really a dues paying union member. That's on the same level as filing a grievance for not upgrading in 6 months. Hope it works out! But, you'll likely get it by then anyway.
