Im pretty sure it CANT be pushed back unless another LOA is signed between the parties.... Its unfortunate, but I think a lot of people are going to miss out because they cant be processed in time....

If you don't have to complete the ATP regional jet transition course then you may get a date as soon as your background check comes back. If you have less then 800/100, then you must attend the ATP course, which could add a total of 3 weeks or more to your wait time to get a class at Eagle.
If you interviewed in the lat few weeks and have more than 800/100, then you might start soon. I think they have a class beginning every other Monday?

FWIW, it will take (many) years before anyone hired now would transfer to AA. You're much more likely to simply benefit from and enjoy the attrition off the top before going to another carrier via traditional methods.

This deal won't be changed, but there are rumors of some sort of similar program that would continue the pref hiring at AA for Eagle newhires beyond Oct. Apparently it has done wonders for our application pile and they want that to continue.

On the scope front, the past decade cost nearly 3,000 AA pilots their jobs lost to furloughs at the same time AA’s regional lift partners went through an explosion of pilot hiring. The notion that we should now entertain an expansion of that job loss is antithetical to the experience of every AA line pilot since 2003. Make no mistake—future growth at AA, including any capacity increase at the feeder level, will be flown by the pilots on our seniority list—the pilots this BOD represents.
This is a little paragraph from the latest APA & AA management sit down. I'd like to hear what people have to say????
