Do you have a source for that? Thanks

Did they give a reason as to why they haven’t been filling the classes for the last 1-2 months? The last several classes have been in the mid-20’s with 40 per class planned.

Classes early in the year didn’t fill up either. No clue why not.

I mean, there is no shortage of applicants/flow throughs waiting around, my guess is it can only be due to a training bottleneck of some kind. Sims? LCA's? Maybe someone knows

I bet its because of guys like my friend. Has a class date from aa and fedex but he is probably going to fedex. Probably wont tell aa until last minute which leaves no time to fill his spot

CKA/LCA are being used to max capacity. I may be going back to the sim before I ever go on OE.

For those of you waiting on a training date, it will happen - just be patient.

Im not complaining though!

That's not it at all. They are filling the classes to support available training. All the SIMs are being modified and AA has been purchasing SIM time all over the country to keep up. By late fall/winter most of the SIMS will be back to full up.
