Sounds like they are calling from a private line. Tell them to call back on a recorded line or just hang up.

I haven't had it yet but I did have 3 or 4 JRM calls in the last day. Wouldn't surprise me if they are trying those tactics to get guys to answer.

Last week JS sent out another email where the opening line literally said, "this is not a solicitation but there are a number of trips we need covered." Sorry, that's exactly the definition of solicitation.

Another meltdown is on its way. Two open ACY trips with a show time of 10 mins from now. Lots of open trips this week with zero coverage, how's it look in other bases?

It may also be due to your cell carrier and cell phone. As the switch to LTE networks happen, they are messing up some of the caller ID information if you have an iPhone 6 or 6Plus. It's been happening for some time now on certain phones within AT&T's network.

Don't know much about meltdowns, but the line is outside the door at FLL. Hiring has been bumped up for FOs to 28 a month.

FAs are still being sent to the wrong hotels or have no reservations. Imagine if this place ran smoothly.

Plan on the average of 8/month but you may see it go up a little. We still only have so many FTDs and check airman. They are hiring more check airman but haven't heard about another FTD yet. New sims should be up by fall. (DFW, LAS)

Anyone else come across captains that are actively trying to leave? I've talked to a couple that aren't even waiting to see if we get a decent contract. Am I missing something? I thought I'd at least wait to see what we get before I decide to leave. I do have apps out and everything up to date, but I haven't felt the urgency to leave right now.

We have one in LAS now, correct? Are we getting a second?
