Thanks for your input but you aren't the target audience. The guy clearly knows more than the rest of us trying to give that advice.

So your opinion is more valid than mine? Who the eff are you blowhards!? It was addressed to certain people on this thread. Not you...

Are you poolies??

Stop trolling keyboard warriors!

Statistically speaking, the "9"s aren't the norm at all. And that's only about a third of the class chiming in. Bummer.

As far as knowing the SSN rack and stack, I agree with both sides. On the one hand, yes, you really need to order what planes you want so you're prepared for anything. On the other hand, it's kind of nice to know where you actually will fall. Yes, that's a crapshoot since you rarely get EVERY single SSN submitted, but if someone wants to do the work, why stop them?

Food fight's over. Now go enjoy some pie.

It remains junior regardless of the most recent class drops. You'll be able to get in there without a problem and reliably for the foreseeable future via an AE.

No worries. Just pick an aircraft that gets you back to NY in the next AE. (advanced entitlement)

Refer to this grid and for an idea:
I was hired 12/7/15 and am already moving to LAX 717B From my class drop of NYC 717B in April having never flown a trip in NY.

My seniority number is right around 12830. You'll see where just that much seniority gets you and doesn't, generally. It's pretty obvious anything in NY is pretty junior.

I'm sorry I come across that way to you. I was just trying to give you my take. I keep an eye on this thread because I volunteer with the mentoring program and some people have some legitimate questions.

Knock yourself out making your list.

Nice! I hope you pay attention during social media day. I don't know many of these guys on here, but I know that tunes and I are both senior to you. All he is saying is that Delta figures this stuff out. None of it matters until you see the drop. Put your dream sheet together, and after plane A is taken, have a plane B in mind, and so forth.

You'd be surprised how people's minds are changed on day one of indoc after their first sip of kool aid. Or after they hear that they'll hold a line out of training on the 88.

As far as your response I quoted above..... HOPEFULLY Delta weeds people with attitudes like yours out. I was overall pretty impressed with how professional the organization was when I was in ATL. The number one guy in a class might select the 88, 2-4 might select the 717, then none of this "where you sit on the list" matters. You're on property at Delta Air Lines. You fly whatever you want in one year (a few exceptions, B777, 350, etc.). Be happy you're here. Leave your attitude you displayed in your above post at home. Nobody wants to work with someone like that.

Also, in your case I would pay close attention to the social media policy in Indoc. It isn't that difficult to figure out who you are if they want to. Good luck dude, and seriously leave that attitude at home. Otherwise I hope they find you in your first 399 hours and take care of it.

LOL----after positing I realized you don't even have half of the 60 people in your class. Proving your efforts futile and a waste of time. Hell, I guess throw me on the list for March 24. My last four are 9998. I'll be taking whatever plane you wanted.

Is there a special special milestone at 400 hours?
