Go to the job fairs! Airlines look very hard at the candidates at these, and some regionals are beginning to do on-site interviews.

Chicago is at the end of this month...

When they hired me back in 07, it took them 3 months to get me into a class. Being in the pool for 3 weeks is nothing, just saying.

Best advice EVER posted on the internet.....period!

I heard that some pilots were going to mainline in July. Any idea how many?

Didn't even know mainline was hiring until this fall. Hope what you heard is true! Been a little slow on attrition lately.

wait till USAIR mergers with AA. If I were at PSA right now I would be hoping to high heaven Eagle does not get another 50 70+ seat jets. A ton of talk Eagle might even get an ASA for their fleet. Could be a very interesting merger for PSA/PDT/Eagle.
