sorry I didn't look back 2 months in the posts to discover that some thread 2 months ago existed. It's one thing when you ask the same question in the same thread over and over again...but seriously a thread that no one has posted in in over 2-3 months....come on.....seriously??? .....and we know how the industry changes over 2 months.......just saying....but hey thanks for the great additional information bc.......

Assuming all paperwork is done correctly and employers respond quickly, how long from pre-offer to a call for class?

I interviewed middle July a couple years ago on a monday. At the end of the interview on monday, I was given the "pre offer" and asked if they could send out PRIA stuff. I was there as they faxed it off to my 1 previous/current employer. On the bus to the airport, I called my employer to check see if she got the PRIA stuff and was told it was already sent back, completed. A day or so later I called just to check make sure they got it and if there was anything they needed. They said my file was complete and would go to CA review board that friday. That friday, I had completely forgotten what day it was so when I am with my students and I see my phone ring from an unknown number, I send it to voice mail. After meeting with my students, it's AE recruitment telling me I have made it past CA review - they said it would probably be an Aug 1st class.

So, it was roughly 2 - 2 1/2 weeks from my actual interview to stepping foot into the cursed placed called the AE Training center...

Thanks for the reply. Good info.


Care to elaborate? What happened?

Is it 13? I always thought we only got 10 'buddies' at a time?

Per the Travel Page in Jetnet:
If you're eligible for D3 travel, you may enroll up to 12 D3 guests in addition to your spouse, domestic partner, or registered companion, parents and dependent children.

Also, you get a 24 trip "Pass Bank" for those Travelers, to be distributed any way you choose.

how is standby on AA/AE? Are there usually seats on the typical low travel days? How often on AA traveling on vacation, etc, do you sit in First/Bus?

Really depends on the destinations.

is that seperate of the 24 pass bank for D2's and D2p's?

Nope it all comes from one bank.
