Actually they'll take Brooklyn. NYC is going junior and the trend seems to be newhires are forced into there, and then bid out on the next vacancy bid. IMO those who want NYC as FOs will have no problem for this hiring cycle.

I heard we had cancellations for lack of crew Jan 3. Pathetic.

Expect 14 days notice and that's it. We are in complete meltdown mode and can't figure out how to cover flights for today.

Default Hiring window

Hi all. Is VX hiring currently or is the window closed? I can't seem to find info on their website. Currently at UA thinking of a change.

That and staffing this airline with the proper amount of crews. This place is becoming more and more of a joke.

For starters, I'd recommend putting down the crack pipe.

The only UA guys who came to VX were coming as furloughed or coming to be VPs/high upper management. Hopefully you're in one of those categories, otherwise as mentioned put down the pipe.
