It sounds like you are a street hire and with a Dec. 5 interview I strongly suspect your class date will be a lot sooner than summer.

The summer class dates were for Endeavor SSP December interviews. Think of Compass flows, Mesaba flows, Endeavor SSP, and street hires as separate entities that all have different timelines when it comes to class dates. Hope that helps.

This probably deserves a call to ALPA and/or the Company to find out for sure.

Don't forget- even if a new hire has a one year seat lock, they can still participate and be awarded an AE as long as the conversion window is outside of their lock (and the company can award it regardless of seat lock if they want to). If they are on property even a month and the company uses one of their one year conversion windows, they can swap jets as well as bases.

Not quite true. If you are subject to a category freeze, you are not eligible to be awarded an AE for which the conversion window begins within your freeze period. When the conversion window ends does not matter.

Correct! If what the previous poster said was true, I'd be on the ATL ER now!

DTW 717 would be the easist thing to hold and I would wager would give you the quickest movement to line holder. While nothing is a certainty in this business, you should be able to get that as an NH. Good luck and Welcome Aboard!

Given the gross earnings other guys posted that they pulled in, sounds like there was decent gravy on the ER this year as well. I didn't ride the GS gravy train like I could have because the days I bid off are days I need off for the most part.
