That's anybody's guess but with the very long expected upgrade time, they certainly might drop it.

I'll bet they drop it by the end of next year as the pilot shortage spools up and the flow throughs divert qualified candidates to other legacies.

Are there another round of interview invites going out?

When are the latest classes folks have been given most recently? September? October?

Whatever you want-I've heard guys going as late as December and January.

Newhire training done in the 300/500 or NG?

both...................NG syllabus with 3/500 differences.

For those of you who may be new to the airline business, and who have the flexibility to do so: do NOT defer a class. Take the earliest class you can possibly get and then call every week to see if any openings have come available in earlier classes.

Seniority is everything. Everything.

In my career one earlier class would have meant the difference between a furlough or remaining on property. It could mean the difference between reserve or a line. Weekends off or not. An upgrade or an extended time in the right seat. You want the best odds you can get to be where you want to be when the music stops and if you think it can't happen to you, you're dead wrong.

Take the first class you are offered. Always.
