I know a guy in the July 18th class and he said they'll put in bids in Aug for Oct, also. Sounds like their class will be the most senior in that group of new classes.

The cutoff is usually around then so could go either way. If you spend most of the month in training I think you get the temp base vs get on the vacancy bid. My class was earlier in the month and we did IOE the end of the prev month to the first week of the next month and we bid on the vacancy bid. Class that started the week behind us got the temp base and they started IOE around the same time.

What are the junior bases? How long before holding a line? How is training pay? I'm sorry this must be covered somewhere else but I'm new :D:D

The junior base thing has been covered ad nauseam. All bases except ATL are all relatively junior and can be held in three months time. Start at the coasts and work inward for relative juniority.
Training pay is min guarantee for the month. It should come out to a little over 6k gross. No perdiem in training but hotel is covered.

For the lucky new gals and guys, how far back are classes going? They into October yet?

They seem to be giving class dates about a month after CJO. I got the call on July 26th and start August 22nd
