Default Base and A/C Drop in Aug 7 Class?

Anyone have the scoop on the bases assigned and aircrafts available? How about the 8 ball?

756 SFO X 4
320 SFO X 11
737 SFO X 7
320 LAX X 5
737 LAX X 8
320 EWR X 5
737 EWR X 16

There were 34 in class. Not sure about who got what. There is another class in 2 weeks and 2 in September. Each of those have about 40 new hires.

756 went untouched (not a must fill). 8 ball took a 320 to LAX. Almost 50/50 between Guppy and Bus.

High awareness by the new hires! If you're in one of the upcoming classes and are in your 20s or early 30s, get up for life on the 757 in SFO.

It’s not the plane that’s the problem, it’s the juniority.

On reserve working weekends while your classmates are line holders getting weekends and holidays off, all for the same pay, is not fun.

Agreed, did it for 2 years, the 737 QOL (and flying variety) is much better.
