Yeah go for it. No one really knows what's happening. Hopefully you can get in the door before the music stops lol. I think we all feel a little dazed and confused. Sure looks like AMR has been planning this out for a while and I'm sure they have a plan for Eagle, but they're not letting the cat out of the bag yet.

Well I guess the cats out of the bag now. :-( I had travel today HPN-ORD-JAX. I am sitting In Chicago waiting for a flight back to White Plains. In the middle of my travel to my RJ course I got a call from eagle to turn around because all hiring is on a freeze for now and the RJ course is canceled. I am totally bummed right now. I studied like crazy I took a whole week off from work payed for a rental and hotel in JAX. Now everything is suddenly flipped on its head. Good luck to everyone. Hopefully this is very temporary.

Yeah, heard that too. All classes for 2012 are canceled and all hiring is on hold right now. No idea about the class on the 5th if that is still on.

Happy friday...

That's horrible news. So awful they told you to go back when you where half way there!
The review board was supposed to go over my papers today. I haven't heard from them yet. That's not a good sign either. $hit...

It is still on. 4pm and no bad news call yet. I'm headed to that hotel on Sunday. If they did call this will be the second class I get kicked out of 3 days before start.(Pinnacle did me dirty)

Wait till 1659. They like to give the news around that time on fridays. Usually, not good ones.

Shouldn't Eagle actually be hiring like crazy since with AA in bankruptcy, they will be shedding flying to the regionals like crazy. Or is Eagle going to be frozen out of the growth of the regionals at AA in favor of other lower cost regionals?

Dude...AMR is in BK. We are owned by AMR. That means all companies owned by AMR are in BK. ALL AMR ops will shrink.
