You can only answer the first question and the answers to all the others are moving targets. Read back in the most recent posts and you will have as good of answer as anyone can give you.

175 deliveries should continue to increase those training slots. No way to know if you will get one and whether DFW will be available. If you get the 175, should be less than three months. If you end up on the 145 probably 9-12 months.

Thanks - forgive my ignorance i'm new. i'm 43 - does your age in class determine something?

Here's the order in which new hires pick equipment/base offered (I think):

Cadets
Prior 121
Everyone else by age

I did email them they were able to clarify this for me.

Thanks!

Yes this is correct. Oldest to youngest.

Nonsense. Plenty of 100% 175 classes lately, and that's expected to continue.

However, that is not the norm, and Envoy is well known to just abruptly stop the 175 hiring without warning.

appreciate the info.

I talked to a guy who started there early Nov and his whole class got 175 and pick of DFW or ORD so seems promising.

Happy New Year!

If a falling apple can really sink the titanic, let it happen now while our careers are insulated. That’s one perk we have. How crappy would it be to wait 12 years to flow, only to get furloughed before you’re off mainline probie. We actually have something going for us in this little steppingstone job.
