Not speculation, rumors, or biatching... we have other threads for that.

I found the post on base reductions and downgrades very informative. That probably should have been left up.

It’s been going through waves. I waited 2.5 months last year.

2-6 weeks was what a training scheduler said to me when I asked 2 weeks ago. Fwiw I finished training right after new year and I’m slated to do OE sometime on Feb.

Did you get a schedule for IOE or are you just guessing it’ll be in Feb. If you you did get it scheduled at what point in training did you find out. Thanks.

Don’t have a set schedule yet. Was told during OE ground school that FOs that are doing OE in Jan have all been called by crew scheduling. Those that didn’t get called will go in Feb was what they said.

With the number of aircraft on order, I don’t see that number going up, barring an economic meltdown, but that would affect every carrier.
