Well they said MCO will be growing the most so I bet we see some new hires end up there this summer.

1. Training pay is $1750 a month I think but someone who has gone through it recently may be able to verify that.
2. Seniority starts day one of training/indoc, oldest guy in your class is most senior.
3. Health insurance starts at 90 days. I think, and I may be wrong, travel on Spirit starts day one and then the zed fares start 90 days. Not 100% sure...
4. Bases change all the time. Not sure for FOs right now as I've stopped paying attention.
5. Usually our commuter clause is 2 flights on any airline, call after the first missed flight. But due to a Covid LOA, for the next couple months they only require 1 flight.
6. Not sure. Lots of people don't wear the company provided shirts or pants.

Thank you very much for the great information.

Eh... Probably DTW and ACY. I know bottom guys are waiting to bid out.

I have heard this as well, especially the DTW comment as there are people wanting to get out.

This is ill advised IMO until we know for sure that everything is okay and we really start to see the flying come back into open time every month. I live in ORD and am more happy to get whatever I can hold rather than dropping everything in another base and fighting the seagulls for open time.

Agreed, it was more of a strategy I have been told about but best applied when flying is back to normal, or at least closer to it.

C'mon man - don't hate on ACY - the little base that could
Just before 'Rona, MCO was not junior enough - the last April/May hires all got DTW, FLL & ACY. only 1 involuntary ACY..

and training pay is $1000 taxable, 750 non taxable per-diem. - 90 days or release to line, whichever comes first

Thank you very much.

Can you drop reserve days with the green day/red day grid, or is that only for line holders? If so, is this something that you've always been able to do, or is it just temporarily allowed because of Covid?
