What’s the average age of a new hire class generally? Think I’m gonna be the youngest at 24?
I think it is the iPad Pro 5th gen. You'll probably be one of the youngest in class

We aren't. Our union seems quite happy with things around here.

Do you live in JFK or BOS? Junior reserve on the 320 can suck with a lot of redeyes. 190 is a really under appreciated plane from a QOL standpoint if you are local.

I am not local. I’ll be commuting from ORD after I move there in the next 6 months. So I’m cool with redeyes from my medevac days. I just dont want to be on a retiring airframe. Maybe I’m over blowing it.

It won't matter for the next year. I'd take BOS 190 if you can get it, then swap to 220 or 320 next year during the system bid.

Dude, you’re 24. Every airplane you fly for the next 30 years will retire before you do.

Congrats on the class date.

You’re flying for a friggin major at 24…at 24, I and a lot of your soon to be colleagues were in the right seat of a beat to hell regional jet getting the $hit kicked out of us flying 5 legs for $25k a year. Boo hoo, you’re flying a fking E190 rather than an Airbus for a year. I swear this entitled generation will end this society.

The 190 pay is the same as Airbus 1st year, but you don’t have to do red eye turns on the 190. Crews are great on the 190 also. You’ll have a nice bump in pay to look toward to when you go to the Bus. My guess is you’ll most likely be in class at United or Delta within the year, so it won’t even matter.

The kind of heavy hitting questions I like to see.
