When are the snapshots again and where can we find those results?

7th and 12th. Usually at flight ops site, in the ebulletin board.

What is the snapshot?

Basically it means the company will run a program for everyone's standing bid current as of Mar 7th. The product it produces is what you would hold if everyone kept their bid as of Mar 7th. This gives individuals an idea of what they could hold at what seniority. Hope this helps...if I miss spoke, someone please help me out, thanks!

So what exactly does starting 9/12 mean? Is that when they expect the base to open with all pilots trained and ready to go? Or does it mean training starts 9/12 to fill those slots. If they needed additional UAL furloughees to fill those slots, could one expect to be trained prior to that date? TIA!

Thanks WarEagle, where can you see it?

They'll post it on the FLT OPS E-Bulletin site sometime on 7 Mar.

This has got nothing to do with LUAL pilots. This all about LCAL. We might as well not even exist.

Bases are to be staffed to support ops in Sept, so Ual furloughed or off the street hires will need to be trained to fill vacancies. Just finished my annual MV/LOE and was told they expect to hire off the street based on the historical UA take rate and train throughout the summer, to cover vacancies. We'll see....but can't see how they can fill vacancies across the 737 without training this summer and hiring (as there are no reductions).

With the exception of the LUAL furloughed pilots that is true. Big thing is that LUAL comes out with bids closer to the time needed and training dates. With the 320 moving to IAH and EWR it will be a wash. LCAL guys are just yanking your chain. This is not a big expansion bid - just a catch-up and the likely winners are the LUAL guys that want to work at LCAL. The company is just moving a/c and people nothing more.
