Bingo. It's highly likely that many of the applicants will not have enough hours.

Mon-Fri 8:30am to 4:30pm man. Call til you get an answer. If you're looking for a "hey, check out my credentials" call then talk to Kathy in HR. She's the one you want to get ahold of. Good luck.

Couple of questions if I may:
1) I thought I saw travel Benes only begin after 6 months, is that right?
2) health insurance? More specifically, could you give me a monthly cost for family and wether "it is good" or not?
3) schedule construction? Line bidding or PBS?
4) how many planes fly for Usairways? Is it really only 3, under the pro rate agreement?
Thank you for your answers.

1. After this many years, I don't even begin to remember that...
2. Couldn't tell ya about the family plan
3. Line bidding, mostly 4 days. Some are commutable, some notsomuch.
4. Yes, it really is 3. But, they're "always looking for new opportunities".

I guess this, along with other catch phrases must be in some MBA programs. It seems like I have heard it at our airline.

United benefits begin after 30 days.

With the new planes arriving, how long would upgrades drop down to for a new hire?

If you have the time i think its 4500 then right now its less than a year. Looks like we have some 2012 october comair guys that may upgrade. But all upgrading for the new airplanes is being done in the next few months. After that it will be based mostly on attrition.
