Turning down a CJO
I have a CJO with a regional with the earliest start date in May. I have another CJO with a regional with a start day like ASAP. Both are regionals I would be happy working for.
Assuming I turn down the CJO, since I've already "accepted" the job, will this burn bridges down the road with the parent company? I think it's pretty understandable I need to pay back loans and 3 months with no pay is not exactly desirable.

If you give them a good heads up you'll be fine. I usually try to give them a month to 2 weeks notice, nothing less than that.

Send the HR people a personal letter thanking them for their consideration and explaining your situation, that finances forced you toward the earlier class date. They will understand.

Yes. Tread very lightly here. Some majors have been known to hold grudges from their wholly owned regionals. With enough notice and kindness, you should be OK.

When I was in that boat, I just wrote a letter to the Chief Pilot at the regional, thanking her for her time and that of the recruitment staff. I also added some comments about how professional i thought the process was (and it was professional) and a few other bits of positive feedback. Nothing very long.
I was contacted by the CP thanking me for the feedback and large lead time. I later got hired by the major which owns that regional with no ill effects at all.

To cancel the two interviews I had lined up, I called the one where they called me to set it up and emailed the other because the only way they got in contact with me up until that point was email.
