One of my gigs is i'm self employed with my own jet management company. And my background case worker requested six years of tax data showing the self employment portion. And she said that stuff was the last bit they needed. Once she got it, she said my packet was all done and was sending it off to SWA.

There are two parties. The one the night before training starts thrown by the previous class and the one I think Rocky was referring to. That one is the first night of training at the Flight Museum.

As previously answered they will give you details about positive space tickets for a spouse or guest.

The PRIA's were sent out same day I got the CJO (yesterday). Hope that helps with your question.

Now I'm just trying to get an idea of how long from CJO to PD calling offering available class dates. As best as I can see average is 5 days.

5 days is pretty accurate. I got the CJO thursday and the class date on wednesday the following week.

Default TPIC Requirement

Any chance SWA will dispense with the TPIC requirement in the next few months?
