Did not make the flight
 
I was invited to an Eagle interview for tomorrow and they put me on a standby status. With only two flights a day leaving RSW, needless to say, I didn't get on. The lady at the gate told me they were overbooked by 4 and the next flight in the afternoon was worse. She advised me not even to wait around. Anyone else ever experience this?? I tried to get a hold of recruiting but no answer. I sent an email so I hope they respond. IF they reschedule, I am afraid it will be during the class I already have scheduled with PSA. I'm glad I am already hired but was looking forward to the Eagle interview for, at minimum, the experience.

They flew you stanby? I always had positive when i went on interviews a few years ago.

Yeah, I though it was a little weird considering PSA had me on positive space a last week. I though Eagle would do the same but I guess not.

When I interviewed at Eagle a few years ago, I believe I was positive space. Told the gate agent I was interviewing with Eagle and was moved to First Class. At that time, it was the best Domestic first class experience I had ever had.

They actually did You a favor by not making the flight. Good luck getting a hold of recruiting, they guy in charge is gone for greener pastures,( wonder why) they are currently looking for a CA to fill his shoes.

Yes, it's always good advice to get hammered while riding positive space to an interview, lol! :D

That does not sound right. You should be positive space going to the interview.

3 years ago I was positive spaced and both flights where full. I guess the gate agent probably doesn't know that.
