Wondering when would it be a good time to put my app in for the company because I hear they are coming to the northwest by opening up a route between PDX and PDT. If right now is the best time what the likely chance they will post me out to Pdx? I understand that Seaport has the contact till the end of the year.
If right now is the best time to apply for the FO. What the best way to impress them of my flying skill and show willing to do what is needed to join the company? Thanks for any advice.

Not only is United starting a program, so is JetBlue. Lufthansa has trained their pilots this way for 30 years..... Will Boutique will get the same agreement? I hope so

Aren't Lufthansa training center pilots Europeans with visas here to study? I wondered how many applicants United has , but they need European student pilots without the right to work to meet their hiring quota , with no turbine time. Also commutair and expressjet don't even have a flow ,it's only an interview. Don't believe what everyone says guys , it's easy to fall for fantasies .
Realistically I believe the flow will be with frontier , the same deal Great Lakes and silver air got.

I don't think it's gonna happen, but ain't that difficult to imagine, from Bonanza to A320. I'm from Europe, and pretty much every single airline does that, from flight school to a 320/737. Safety record is pretty good haha
