What training are we going to receive on the IPad EFB and how much will we be paid to complete it? Has any announcement been made?

I doubt that anyone would be that stupid, I also doubt that anyone that stupid is from the (pre-2010) era, I also doubt that is some anti-union clown trying to raise hell.

I agree with your doubts... If it's a joke, it ain't funny!

There is a guide that went out to instructors on basic set up but I don't know of anymore than that. It shows you how to load the Jepps, foreflight and add your company email.

There's also a "10 hour use requirement" before being self-certified on it, but I think that'll come during the evaluation phase and then for everyone after instructors.

When does 2nd year pay (or any year for that matter)? Say somebody was hired December 8th. Does the pay increase start on December 8th or December 1st?

If I remember correctly, the new "rate" may not seen on the ultipro site until the December 31st check, possibly the January 15th. That being said with the original caveat, the pay bump would take effect on the DOH (Dec 8th). Just make sure to run a quick calculation of the new rate x 23 days (1/8-1/30) and compare the pay sheet where it is identified as "retro."

2nd year pay is prorated from the exact DOH.
If hired on the 8th, 1-7 old rate, 8-15 new rate.
The difference between old and new, is paid in that pay period.

Has anyone had issues with the "id90travel" website?
While "myidtravel" works fine, the "old" id90 only allows booking on Frontier.
Would someone please check?

The id90 help desk said I need to contact my pass bureau.
Pass Bureau is closed on weekends...
The family needs to fly on UA and may be stranded till Monday.
Thanks.
