Most JR FO who got awarded ORD was hired almost 2 months ago. You may have to go to ACY for less than a month before going to ORD

Thx for the info.

You can preach all you want but when guys don’t have the info until a week prior to class and some less, there is not much time to prepare.
They used to send out a cd. Now its just access to a website, with no panels to learn flows, etc. you can just read about them.

If that's the case then no, that isn't correct. A guy should have at a minimum two weeks and ideally at least a month to start looking things over.

And not to defend them but this is Spirit. You have to buy/bring your own coffee in training. You have to buy your own uniforms. They would just as soon kick you in the teeth than give you a hand. This place is the lowest of low and for the life of me can't understand why anyone would come here or even stay here. I don't know anyone here that isn't in some way looking to leave and move on. Even senior (10+ year) guys/gals are looking to dump this place like a bad habit.

I wish I could say that this place has potential, future, blah blah blah but I can't even muster that level of optimism anymore.

If you want to come here then good luck but one might look at all the rats jumping ship before signing on as a new deckhand.

The reasons on why someone may choose to come to Spirit are different from you, me and the other guy.

In my personal experience, I have flown with very senior guys who are happy with Spirit. I’m sorry to say, I have not flown with anyone that shares your opinion. Yes they all agree on various issues that will improve this place. But overall, the guys and ladies I have flown with are content, and thats not to say they don’t want better.

It's not like the 'Bus is exactly classified. There is plenty of material available for study out there.

Which airline's flows do you recommend new hires study before showing up?
