Try the Hampton inn and suites airport/ 28th Ave. It's directly across the street from the training center, they might give you a good rate.

Sorry for the long delay, had my hands full the last few days. Regional captain, high TT, rel low TPIC, internal rec, 3 AK recruiting events. Stay persistent everyone, this company is a class act. I highly recommend Emerald Coast Interview Consulting. The in-person seminar or webinar, video and audio files and the phone top-off proved invaluable to me. That being said, be yourself! Alaska is a family that wants solid aviators that are stand up people as well, let them know it and show them you want to be there. Best of luck everyone!

Anyone have any crashpad info near the training center that wouldn't require a car? Or actually any crashpad info would be helpful. Thanks!

VX has an FA class starting today. Pilot training, as per a training instructor at VX, is supposed to begin again in Jan. I originally heard Nov, but now Jan. Reserve staffing is thin, we could use more pilots. Since AK likes VX sooo much as to purchase VX for that price, I dont see AK automatically axing the VX processes. It will change over time, but I think most poolies are in good shape though the March timeframe.

Does anyone know how many people are in the hiring pool? If you were recently interviewed and were hired how far out is your class date. I know that in the October round of interviews, HR was calling people and giving 5-7 days notice for the interview.

This is from the last CP news letter "Hiring still continues strong with new classes bringing a continuous flow of 10-12 new hires every few weeks. The current schedule is to run new hire classes at this rate through the end of the year. I continue to be impressed with the strength and caliber of the new hire candidates and appreciate the steady stream of pilot candidates recommended by current pilots here at Alaska"
