I wouldn’t… if goal is DC then bid 737, 320 or 756.
Do you know when they plan on retiring the 756? I feel like I read on here not to bid it for that reason. Thanks. |

Watch the roadshow video/town hall. Ask any FACT team member or rep.

you get displaced you get to go anywhere your seniority can hold with no seat lock. Displacements are pretty powerful. get displaced and go to NB Captain and after 6 months you hate it? Bud back to FO instead of waiting 2+ years |

Hello- I received my CJO last week. Pending this TA passes as expected and they offer me the upgrade what would my schedule and QOL look like? My background is 20 years of military flying so I’m used to missing holidays and weekends. Do I just rip the bandaid off and jump in? Or is that horrible idea? My number one priority is to be based out of DCA/IAD. Thanks!
B the company can’t do it until all contract sections are implemented. |

This is incorrect, and has been corrected many times. They can force new hires into captain as soon as the TA passes. The new hires cannot START CAPTAIN TRAINING until the new reserve rules are implemented. The new hires need 350 hours in type and complete the probation checkride. This will conveniently coincide to be about August 2024 when we will see the first new hire captains meet this requirement.

Not exactly. Couldn’t be offered next week due to 8-D-6. At the very earliest it would be after the next vacancy closes.
