The following are excerpts from the April System Schedule Committee report:
April and May NH/FR classes continued at 2 classes per month and have been scheduled with
40 pilots per class, rather than the original plan of 30. Additionally, the company will most likely
have at least one or two classes a month beyond that timeframe until the Fall ramp up.
Additional classes will likely be announced approaching each bid period as the manpower
need and/or training availability is determined.
There are now 50 remaining extended furloughed pilots on the list with various 10-year
expiration dates thru November 10th 2019.
So, while there are no guarantees, looks like hiring will continue through the summer.
The rest of the report from the SSC dealt with the future plan for Fall 19 thru Spring 20 to prepare for the summer of 2020. At this point it sounds like the will be training as many as the Training Center can handle (and the Training Center is already big and growing), so good news on the training/growth front.
Obviously many variables that can effect the plan, but for now the sun continues to shine at historic intensity.

Don’t know about unfilled vacancies but the report says that there is a vacancy that opens today. Almost exclusively wide body slots which is always good!

Humm, not so sure about that. The most jr SFO 777 FO is 11307 (Jr Man Table). I’m guessing that’s at least 2 yrs with company. But with 30 openings...hope that holds out for new hires that want it! Don’t be surprised when the Final comes out and the relative seniority is back to >100%.

I believe it is based on the "minimum" shown on the MIN/MAX info. So, if your current BES doesn't have any bids coming in on this vacancy it prob has a very low min (to avoid forcing back fills they don't want) which will make it look like you can't hold your current assignment.
