honestly, a) not even eagle mgmt knows what the makeup will be at this point, trust me... and b) with a class that big, who knows where you'll wind up seniority wise (unless you're on either extreme end of the spectrum in terms of age).

my advice, think of your top three cities and keep them in mind when the time comes. i, personally would recommend the Rock ;) too bad you wouldn't be there long anyways....

Its not like it was back in the day when there were always 2-3 SJU slots in each class. I dont think we have had any SJU ATR openings in the past 3-4 classes. Downsizing SJU bigtime, and it sucks.

Very good chance of seeing either LGA/ORD CRJ, and ORD EMJ. Good chance of DFW EMJ and MIA ATR. Low chance of DFW ATR(little lower for SJU ATR). Very low chance of JFK/LGA EMJ and probably zip chance of LAX ERJ.

If you dont get your preferred base then go for the preferred equip(in your preferred base). There is a good chance of transferring bases before you even finish training.

Ok Question,

Does eagle let you enroll a friend for travel benies. Like @ UAL you can enroll one friend, its a huge hastle to unenroll/enroll a new one. It is for those in long term relationships who are not married. I am not talking companion passes, but full enrollment for someone your not married to. And what do you get outside travel benies.

Thanks

Yep, registered companion for D2 travel. Outside travel benies? Like on other airlines?

No like health care, and other benefits? Just wondering what they offer for my GF, not married yet, but long term relationship, almost one of those I would get married quicker if they didnt give her bennies from enroll a friend.

Im pretty sure you cant get health bennies for your significant other unless they are considered a domestic partner... which you wouldnt qualify for if ya get my drift!

Rick, aren't you attending GLA ground school in Jan??? You should be posting these questions to other Lakers.

I could not make the Jan 3rd GS w GL due to prior obligations, so I am in their pool. I have interviews coming up with AE and Colgan. I am taking life a day at a time right now. The place I work @ also just bought a twin otter, so my fall back plan isnt bad either.

considering it takes months not days to get through the process at AE - I doubt GLA will keep a seat warm for you
