Nope not allowed at Compass. Upgrade is one of the lowest in the industry. Right now it's 1000 121 time so we are seeing guys with previous time on the line for like 6 months and upgrading. If you start with 0 121 time, expect 18-24 month. It should get lower in the fall when everyone starts leaving. In July we had 11 captains and 7 FOs leave.

The general consensus among my new hire friend's class is that they don't want to be a bother and want to keep their heads down since they are on probation, new to this, etc. Pretty sad.

There are several pilots currently at the Town Place. it is very nice hotel and right across the street from Mall of America. The June 30 class was booked for 31 days when they checked in on July 17. Have not heard that anyone has had their reservation extended. I will ask around tomorrow.
I heard that at least one guy in the class that started this week has already contacted the head of training and the CP about the situation with the Extended Stay. They said they are looking into it.

The rumor going around is the hotel contract was terminated because of an incident. Disclaimer: this is a rumor.
The story going around is that a Compass pilot got into a loud argument with the hotel manager. Because of this the hotel raised the hotel rate and TSA said they would not pay it.

Pro tip: right now you seem like an infant crying to get attention. Its easy to ignore and most people around just feel sorry for you. If your posts were more subtle then led to the ridiculous your trolling would be more successful.

Good luck in your future endeavors.

Note that the Kelly interpretation put out by the FAA excludes single pilot freight time from counting, even if the aircraft is large enough. Basically the operation must require you to have an ATP, which single pilot freight doesn't.

FYI, gap family health insurance is a couple of hundred dollars cheaper then this, and is good for up to a year.
