I have a friend with a very generic sounding name and I don't want my internal to be wasted.

IIRC, each person's application on AirlineApps has an "application number" or "file number" buried in it somewhere. I think I was able to get/include that number on my recs, in the subject line and in the body of the email.

After going through today I am amazed that some folks are able to catalogue their groups so well. Everybody is wearing the same thing. Several of us introduced ourselves to each other three times before we figured out who we were talking to. There is a lot going through your mind.

Congrats to everyone hired. Hopefully it goes well for those of us interviewing in the future.

7 day trips are junior if you happen to get on the 76/4.

Thanks for your input. What would a potential schedule look like with some 7 day trips? Didn't know those existed so thanks for helping me understand.

Not sure exactly what you're angling for, but at Delta you would be able to hold at least 15 days off/month pretty easily once you get off of reserve. You can work more if you want, but within a few months on most NB's you should be able to hold a line. It's all personal preference after that.

We don't have straight week on, week off schedules like Netjets, but with minimal seniority and proper bidding you should be able to put together a schedule that closely resembles what you seem to be looking for.

That said, I'd say the cart might be before the horse. Any of the majors will provide similar scheduling options. Get your interviews ASAP and then pick based on what you're offered vs QOL/basing etc.
