Not for an interview. If you do not get on the flights that day, call them and let them know. They will push back the interview date. You are positive spaced for indoc and SIM away from domicile. Also any other training that is not at your domicile.

It might also be important to clear up that once positive spaced to indoc, trainees are only positive spaced to and from domiciles. Not a big deal if CASS approval goes thru. Only took mine a couple weeks.

Too many codes to type for PARS. Ask around the crew rooms and people usually know what to type. Sometimes there are cheat sheets posted by the computers in the crew rooms too. You can always tell an upgrade because they don't have a seniority date and boarding priority and NRSA next to their name on the waitlist.

Applicants are not positive spaced, to they travel at the highest SBY company business priority there is.

Always keep in mind that the gate agents do have some discretion as well. Be friendly and polite at all costs, and it could help you in finding your way into that last seat.

I have been here since January and love it. Of course it's what I have always wanted to do. There are things you would like different at any job, but overall I think it's a good company to work for.

I really hate bringing this up again but has anyone heard where most of the CR9 FO movement may be? I was assigned to DTW but put in a bid for MSP since I think I would like it here more than Detroit. While I do like MSP, I do consider how long I would be on reserve. From what I've seen, Detroit seems to have the most movement and I'm guessing I'd be off reserve quicker based out of DTW. Has anyone heard anything? I'd prefer not to be in MSP for 6 months reserve (I know, I'm pulling numbers out of my @@@).

Historically MSP has been the most senior base...so in my opinion if you bid for msp and you dont want reserve...that would be a bad idea.

Why is MSP so senior? Is it a pretty nice town or something?

Careful who you say that too... there are guys here that have been on reserve for many many years.
