56 here. Start at the end of the month. Our class is filled with birth years ranging from 1966 to 1997. I'm one of at least 2 retired Air Traffic Controllers in the bunch. Looking forward to the adventure![/QUOTE]

Hopefully they don't make you go around twice at SFO! You'll be able to really give it to them.....

How far in advance notice did they offer your class date? Was it sent with your CJO?

How much notice is being given in advance for class dates and what’s the timeline looking like between cjo vs starting class?

Approx 60 days from interview to class. Class dates come about 2 weeks after CJO in the current environment. This is what I’ve seen from a couple friends now.

Two parts to this question - how soon you are awarded EWR and how soon you activate there. United has run 10 bids in the last 12 months. It's likely you could be awarded EWR within two months of hire. Activation is somewhat at company discretion after that but typically about 3 months.

Overall - base swap within 6 months of day 1 is a reasonable expectation.
