Thats because you used Frontier to leverage when you needed a Delta or United CJO….

I know a guy at AA who used Frontier for leverage. Another used Southwest. But AA just gave me an interview invite so one way or another it worked out.
I also know a guy at Delta who was not successful with leveraging Delta. However he was probably getting metered and got impatient.

I had CJOs from UAL and DAL. And I knew people on their recruiting team. Nada.

Sometimes it isn't a matter of who you know, but rather who knows you.

really doesn’t matter at this point, the guy got his interview. Wish him the best of luck, he’s been wanting AA for the longest time.

Maybe? I was also very close to flowing and was told if I was within 6 months they weren’t going to interview me because by the time I got in class it would have just about been a wash.

I ended up at DAL and so far can’t be happier. My QOL and pay seem far better than my friends at both AA and UA. A guy in my class is crediting 150-200 hours /month and yet others are dropping their flying and only working 2-3 trips /month. Others are upgrading to Captain with only 6-9 months on property.

Sometimes the grass is in fact greener.
