Hey, I live in CLE and they have been offering CLE 737 in the most recent class drops. Given how senior CLE has been anyone know how long it would take to hold a line in CLE.
Trying to decide if I should commute to a line in EWR or if I should hold out for a line in CLE. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
Today’s new hire class (Jan 18th, 2022) is 72 pilots. They are being offered FO on everything we fly. 737, Airbus, 757/767, 777 and 787 FO in almost every base. Congrats!

Do not pass up a CLE bid. Reserve in base > commute to a line. Plus who knows how long CLE lasts.
you can always trade out of CLE later on if you like to. Odds are you will not be able to trade into CLE. |

They know, at this point, that they can’t fill NB CA slots at EWR. If they offer 15 more slots in CLE, they’ll have more than enough takers. The good news for junior CLE FOs is that all those new CLE CAs will (mostly) come from the top of the CLE FO list. Same goes for DEN and IAH, but those bases are more complicated by having multiple fleets. CLE is likely pretty straightforward to predict. |

I’ve read back about a month and haven’t seen a whole lot of references to IAH. I was wondering what that bases looks like seniority wise? Sounds like all fleet types are there?

Junior lineholder is a mid 2019 hire as of this date in IAH. New hires can usually hold a line within a month or two of finishing training in SFO/EWR. |
What is the reserve time for a new hire on the 756 fleet in EWR?

I’ve heard that some junior new hires are getting “must fill” into the 777, is that common?

Thanks for the update! I’ve been looking along I70 it seems like that would be the best option. 30-45 minutes to the ski areas, about an hour to the airport. Can’t get much better than that unless there is a lot of traffic or a wreck!

I hope this isn’t just hiding in plain sight and I’ve missed it, but does anybody have the chart that shows the junior CA/FO for each fleet/domicile? I know just about everything’s open to new hire FOs - mainly trying to find out the CA plugs.

It’s found in flying together/ ccs by bid awards, junior man report. Currently after probation you could probably hold captain in the coastal junior based. Subject to change!

Any SEA-SFO commuters here? How's the QOL?
Obviously prevailing wisdom would say that reserve in base > commute to line, but given where I'm currently employed (SEA-based and living, if that's any indicator) and the associated reserve rules, I'd actually get a line quicker and have more time off with a SFO commute at UAL... |

I've had the jumpseat full a decent percentage of the time. |
Any idea when the company will put out a new vacancy bid? I can’t imagine they will continue with the new hires having access to everything straight out of class.

So, the November vacancy awards are usable till mid Feb and the December vacancy awards are usable till mid Mar. So, they would have to put out a vacancy bid by the end of Feb in order to keep hiring past mid Mar. With that being said, I am guessing it will be much earlier than that, like as early as this Friday. |

They can use the "unfilled" vacancies for new hires for up to 92 days after the award is posted.

I just noticed today that the vacancy bidding screen is open again. On the flight ops town hall last week Zachary Shapiro (new Paul Carlson) said he was in the process of writing a new crew resources update, so it wouldn't surprise me to see another vacancy by this Friday or next.

Any guess on how it will look? Same type of vacancies or going back to new hires on the coasts
So, prob not a bunch of movement for the top half of the seniority list, but great movement for somebody who just got hired. |
so how many were in this week's class and what fleet/domicile mix did they get???

Nobody was forced into a base. |

Been doing it for years with no issues. A lot of people think it’s a bad commute and it is if you only use our metal. DL and AS each have a bunch of flights which mean about 15-20 flights a day to SFO from SEA. I mainly commute on AS and never have any issues. The other plus is that you are never on an RJ commuting between the two. Throw in OAK and SJC and you’re up to around 30 flights a day to the Bay Area daily. Pre-Covid it was about 50. PM me if you want more details, but really, it is a pretty nice commute overall.

Is the 777/787 a combined fleet? Are they the same bidpack?

Any word on how many 777s and 787s this week? Figure they have to have a decent number going to those fleets in order to be able to train the total number we are hiring every week. Got to spread that number out over as many fleets as possible just to get the throughput.
Figure this week and next should be great weeks to get hired in the other fleets as there will likely be a vacancy bid posted that closes while these next two groups are still in Indoc. Prob be able to get a lateral awarded before they even start aircraft training. |

787 has been going senior and 777 junior in most classes.
