Given that you live in base, I wouldn’t make a lateral move

Ahhh okay. Definitely do what you feel is right. Just as a data point, sat through a webinar with DL on their pilot hiring presentation and they said that lateral moves bring up questions, but definitely not a deal breaker.

That was a few months ago and things can definitely change. Heck, that outlook might completely change, so take that with a grain of salt!

is ORD still shrinking for you guys? I have apps out everywhere at the LCC’s, but if that doesn’t happen, when my dumpster fire of an airline goes under I need to decide where to go…

My initial response to this was a warning to stay far far away and go to SKW if you’re interested in Chicago (for upgrading at least), But after seeing the absolute shocker of the Captain Vacancy bid that came out this morning, I say it’s looking great. ORD’s most junior CA will soon be a 10/2018 hire. The company finally figured out people are tired of commuting once they upgrade.

Wow, never thought I'd see that day for Republic. I know you guys aren't doing DEC's, but how quickly would someone with the 1,000 121 be able to upgrade at Republic?

How long after the in-person interview does it take to receive and offer, assuming they liked you?

Virtually immediately, assuming they meet the 2500 hour TT mandated by the company.
