We are at a different hotel on the other side of the airport since it was a last minute decision to change our class from virtual to in-person. We have to have all of CBT's completed between Tuesday night and Sunday night. Glad I'm staying here, because I'd be way to distracted at home to get them done, plus it's a full days travel on each end. I think I counted 52 separate classes that need to be done, so average 10-11 per day to stay on target.
Cheers! |

I'm still more than 90days out so don't have much info but wanted to ask about the dress code, it's business casual? Button-down with tie? Polo ok? Does SkyWest give out any polos? (I've seen Endeavor class with all the same polo on). Reason being I don't have a weeks worth of business causal wardrobe.

The question on the attire has been answered already, but it is business casual. Polo's and khaki's are fine and some are wearing button down shirts. No denim, tennis shoes, etc. Plan to bring a plain, white button down shirt and black tie for your Company Badge picture day. The hotel has laundry machines on site if you aren't bringing that many clothes.
The schedule is pretty fluid at this point, especially with Sims. I'd just plan on being there the entire time and if you get the chance to go home, it's a bonus. They stressed today before releasing us that if we do decide to go home, you better make darn sure you make it back for ground school. With this crazy winter weather, I'm not risking it. Our class will bid for our Sim location and times on Monday (ground day #1). It's based on the Sim availability across the system, so it's hard to predict from a timeline perspective. We dropped our domicile preferences on the second day of Indoc and may not find out until the end of the month. It just depends on where your class falls in the monthly bid cycle as to when you'll find out your initial domicile. You'll have plenty of time to bid for a transfer before you get tto that point though, so it's not the end of the world if you don't get your first choice right away. I know more than a few that started at DTW and got transferred before their IOE started on the next bid cycle. Lot's of movement now and into the future. Indoc: 1 Week - Tue to Tue with the weekend off. CBT Online Training: 5 days - Tue to Sun Ground: 2 Weeks - Mon to Fri (may have a short class on either Saturday in the morning) Procedures Training: ~1 Week - Mon to Friday (schedule based on availability) Sims/Checkride: ~15 day window based on Sim availability. IOE: schedule is roughly 6-7 weeks after finishing the checkride Cheers! |

I don’t believe we are eligible to transfer until after IOE. I have a bid in to transfer from ORD to IAH. About half of the people who were awarded the transfer are more junior than me…I’m still in ORD on the bid list.

You can transfer before IOE. Not sure what's up with your bid but maybe try deleting it and rebidding
