ok. Why don’t you apply? You’ve been around here asking questions long enough.

TPA is the most senior base. This is the seniority spread for each base on the A220. Keep in mind that there are still about 55 legacy pilots on the Ejet that will move to the 220 and push almost everyone down.

TPA: CA #1-#173. FO #78-#281
CHS: CA #2-#200. FO: #247-#295
BDL: CA #88-#344. FO #225-#357
PVD: CA #61-#356. FO #310-358
PVU: #3-#302. FO #56-#345
And there is the A220 Home based option, which is captains only and it ranges from #4-#87

the most junior pilot on that seniority list is an Ejet FO in ORF at #355. That list is effective as of 4/28

Very useful information! Much appreciated, I will be bumping shoulders with you in a crew room hopefully soon, just trying to figure out where to live in base so I can drive to work.

Default ATP/CTP and Training Outline

I’m sure this has been answered before but I could not find it in the thread so apologies in advance -

The app says Breeze will pay for ATP/CTP course, just verifying this is correct? Do they make you sign a contract? (Not planning on jumping ship, I just want to know what I would be signing up for)

What does the training outline look like now that things are moving along more quickly? From day 1 to IOE duration.

Is anyone getting hired for the eJet or is it all A220??

Thanks!

ATP/CTP Paid (I’ve noticed mainly for rotary guys/military, doesn’t seem like any fresh cfi’s now)
Maybe like 90% 220 10-15% E-Jet?

A220 Timeline
Day 1-10: Indoc
Systems studying at home: Minimum 2 weeks
1 1/2 - 2 weeks of Sits
Oral
Week - Week 1/2 of Sims.
IOE

No contract to my knowledge

If you have flown a RJ, and you go home and study very well those 2 weeks - Enjoy the vacation and new type rating. If you haven’t - you have my condolences. But in all seriousness you’ll get through..but seems like it’s the only non jet guys who struggle. Mainly cause they didn’t study hard enough or just rote memorization questions n answers without understanding much at the 2 weeks at home. Just my opinion and what I’ve seen, i’m sure others have seen different things.

Apply here - Happy here, worth it. Wouldn’t want anything else. Fo’s go straight to a line in junior bases. Takes like a whole year at minimum to get off RSV and several years to upgrade at the other LCC’s. You’ll upgrade at mins - Have so much career progression and opportunity here. Everyone knows each other, culture is amazing. But again, I’ve said it before. Be ready to deal w minor growing pains, no direct contribution, ugly uniforms and ur deadheads/travel making no sense. Once that’s fixed. (I’m sure it will be) Best airline in LCC market for a pilot IMO
