The Sky west profile on this site states that rooms are double occupancy during training. So just to clarify... you are required to share a hotel room with another guy in your class?

Yes, but it's two rooms really. Didn't turn out to be so bad. Then in sims you get your own room. You can also pay to cover the cost of a single room, but I don't really think it's worth it. It really helps to have a study partner.

Depends on which hotel you're in, but most likely you'll have a suite with 2 separate bedrooms, so you'd just be sharing a kitchen and living room. I haven't heard of guys sharing a room with 2 beds side by side, but don't quote me on that.

Does that go for those training in DEN or SLC (or both)?

Yeah, double occupancy is bunk.

BUT

I'd rather double up in a suite with a full size kitchen and fridge like it is rather than a Microwave and mini size fridge to my own for 2 months.

Yes, welcome to a first class career ...

You can also pay for single occupancy if you like.

At least we even get a room.... Those poor souls at Frontier have to pay for housing and transportation to class during ground school. :eek: At Delta too for that matter, haha.

Thanks for all the info! I have a class date in DEC. Still have an interview with Envoy scheduled, but thinking of cancelling now that they are opening a base in NY since I'm guessing most new hires will go there. I'm looking for ORD as soon as it is possible.

CTP date has nothing to do with it. We have a combination of CTP class dates in our group, and several who didn't attend CTP. Makes no difference, the cadets are 1st, then the rest of us with SSN. I hope this helps.

Regarding the last 4 of SSN, if your last 4 starts with '9,' will that be a higher seniority than if your last 4 starts with '0?'
