The pool moves quicker when all 3 legacies are running classes. With AA and UAL stopping classes for parts of the summer, it's gonna get stagnant for a bit.

Is AA actually stopping classes for parts of the summer? I had not heard that.

For years, they have paused hiring for a month or two in the summer. Give the schoolhouse an opportunity to take vacation. Nothing new.

They also don't have a class starting the last couple of weeks of December, for obvious reasons.

Default Vacancy Bids ?

Where can one find the recent vacancy bids & the outcome? I searched this forum & RST United on FB. Was golfing with a guy this past weekend and he said 75/76 at EWR went to 15,000. It's something I would like to monitor as the year goes on. Eveyone is pretty good about posting class drops etc....

It’s on our company intranet. It’s a huge amount of data to post, so maybe if you’ll drill your question down to something very specific, we can post it here.

The most recent bid, yes. It was a 15000 seniority number. There were only three awards due to backfills for pilots leaving EWR 756. There weren’t any published vacancies.

The vacancy bid prior to that had an awards go to 16 and 17000 numbers. It really shouldn’t take too long for you to hold once you’re on property as long as this train stays in some sort of motion.

Yeah I had a buddy that was able to vacancy bid into the 756 EWR during training in December. My goal is 756 EWR but I won't be on property until later this year or early next year. Good to hear that it shouldn't take long, thanks.

Two EWR 756 spots were in the drop for the 4/2 class. That's the last time it's been offered for newhires.
