Just checking FlightAware and there are NO GAJ’s in the air at 7am.... Hoping the reopen here in Georgia goes well and business starts to perk again.

9 in the air right now as of 12.30pm West coast. A trickle compared to this time a month ago but still revenue nonetheless. I flew out to the East coast on a A321 last tour. Myself and 5 others in 1st class with a grand total of around 20 in the back. The ticket was $200. They must he hemorrhaging money at that rate. I read Delta is burning through $100 million day.

Any new communications from the top for those of us in the LOA cone of silence?

I was surprised this week, no all call conference.

TMC/DPJ pilots - how is seniority a factor at your operators and is there a published seniority list?

I saw DPJ is currently advertising for pilots. Does anyone know if they are hiring pilots for an applicant pool for down the road needs, or if they are actively bringing pilots in and training them?

Direct from head of HR that they are hiring into a pool and are taking apps. No May or June classes. Good luck

Where did you hear no May or June classes? I am in the pool (interviewed in mid March) and we get a weekly call giving us updates. I was told yesterday that they are still hoping for June.

I'm not sure I would trust that. Several pilots on leave until August and the remainder are on reduced schedules until then. I can't believe they would run any class while asking a portion of their pilot group to take unpaid leave at the same time. Hopefully this all clears up sooner rather than later.
