I got the "you're hired" call last Wednesday, the 8th, but have yet to get a class date. At least one of the guys in my interview group already got invited to class on April 18th. I presume they're just working their way down a list and hope to get a call early next week so I can do some planning.

Is there anyone on this forum who has experience jump seating out of CLT to get to a SWA base? Do you have trouble finding a seat on the various airlines that operate out of CLT?
Also, I will admit that I am not familiar with all of Southwest's bases. Where do the most junior FOs usually get assigned?

Agreed. Let me rephrase the question.

So I'm new to trying to get onto SWA. Only airline I'm trying for also. I meet the requirements; Retired military, TT about 6k, FWPIC about 1300, etc. I have my 737 Type, I have the 4yr degree, and most of the other things I read about on here that are the "points makers." Still no call, but I'm kinda new into this. I'm trying to get to the Job Fairs but my work schedule seems to make those impossible. The requirement of "actively flying 2/5 yrs" is something that may be a showstopper why I may not be getting called. I was flying FW overseas 4-5 yrs ago and flying MEDEVAC helos the past 3 yrs. Anyone know if the "actively flying" includes helos or are they just looking for FW flying in that 2/5? Any help/thoughts/ideas are greatly appreciated.
