Its Envoy. Their flying is down 29% out of ORD already. Rumor has it Enovy is headed for a stronger presence in the east and we get most of whats left out of ORD.

PSA still doing ORD work or was that short lived?

If we could get some AA ERJ work instead of 700, it would make bidding the ERJ an easier thought.

If what you said was true. Then they wouldn't have FO instructor positions open.. i know a FO that just got hired for one of them.. They did tell him "we would like a year". If you upgrade after. We probably won't use you anymore.

There's a rumor floating around that recent Compass hires whose dates were pushed right indefinitely can bypass the SW interview process if they can provide a notarized Compass CJO. Can anyone confirm/deny this?

You must of misunderstood. Its pretty easy to see they are still hiring FOs, like it has already been said just go look at the careers page.

They are still holding on to some guys that have upgraded because of so many of the FO instructors upgrading. But the bottom line is they are still hiring FOs who want to apply to teach ground, matrix, FTD and CTP.

Cadets get their benefits 30 days before class. Mine got terminated while I was a cadet and then when I was within the 30 days they got activated again. Delta and United.

Non Cadets have to wait because they won't have full access to Skywest online. Once that "unlocks" for you and you can get to your travel profile you'll see when you can get your benefits. Usually you have them because when they fly you out for CTP, it's positive space. I know this because I've changed my reservation they made me under my United travel benefits before to avoid waiting all day in SLC like they planned me to.
