Still sounds like IAD is to be expected out of the gate but it won't take long at all to get any of the bases. DEN might be a few months, looking at the number of bids currently out for it but it's going to be a large domicile and we're looking at a lot of movement with the growth.

Everyone in the April classes are KIAD initially. I believe the 5/7 class was about 14 people.

5/7 was 13 people, all double bunked.. They told us that they weren't sure where the class would be domiciled yet, since the bids are coming in for other bases still, and there will be a little bit of a reshuffle throughout the system. IAD is very likely though. Still talk of a possible base in RDU to support the AA flying out of LGA. DEN still slowly spooling up, so people from other bases are moving there, and their positions need to be backfilled with new hires, so it is changing each month.

Sounds like RDU is going to happen, but not till the end of the year after St Louis gets all of its AA airplanes. When everything is up and running, RDU will probably be junior followed by DEN IAD ORD and STL in that order....

Planning to move to DC area and be closer to family. Wondering if I should jump ships. Currently at a 121 with 500 SIC and not sure how long more I can take reserve schedule.

Is there a way someone can mail me a copy of contract?

The 10k$ bonus sounds sweet with first year pay, makes it easier to jump ships, is it contractual? On the TSA's website on the PDF it said, it can be modified anytime and can be discontinued anytime at sole discretion. Does it mean once hired with bonus, they can stop it midway or only discontinue for the new hires after cancellation of bonus.

How junior is IAD? What is an estimated cost of health insurance fir a married couple?

What is the training pay and how long is the training and where is it done?

Does one get benefits from UAL and AA both or just UAL or AA depending on base?

Thank you. Would appreciate the information.

Oh come on, you mean to tell everyone that the one with six hot bunks that 6 mainline united FAs, 6 TSA pilots and 12 mesa pilots vie for every month is no good...
