Delta Newhire training question

[roadrunner]

Does anyone know what Delta newhires are paid during training? Do they provide hotel?

 

[EUT]

What are Delta's hiring mins?

1000 Turbine ttl time, not pic. The requirements are for the military folks. If you are a civilian, expect to get called with at least 4000 hrs ttl, with at least 600 turbine PIC. There are others hired with less but those are for other programs.

Delta Pays their new hire pilots 2750 per month in training. It is payed out ever two weeks. Health care and other deductions are taken out of that money. If you live over 75 miles away from ATL you get a hotel for the two weeks of indoc. In not you do not. During training you are responsible for your lodging. The flip is that every time that you have training in the future you will have a hotel, even ATL based pilots. Flight bennies and health care from Day 1 and anytime you have a break in training more than 48 hrs you are given positive space home to see your family.

Unless you are a female. A buddy in the trng. dept. recently had a new hire with 1,500 ttl and 0 pic. Said her time in the box was not pretty.

you said box.

Not quite true. You do not get a hotel as an ATL based pilot for recurrent, only for an initial school. Non-ATL pilots always get a hotel, including recurrent.

Sorry about that I should have clarified for initial.

Boys and girls...this is the chance of a lifetime. I strongly recommend that you kiss the family goodbye and forget about running home on the weekends and short breaks in training. Put first things first. That is, secure the job then see the family.

I'll second that! Of course its not like the old days of hazing on the 727!
But is only 6 weeks. Buck up and hammer down on the books, remember its probation.

Good friend of mine who is a guy just got the conditional offer with less time, but he has a long and good history with Delta. Worked his way up from the bottom and did a great job at every level type.

I don't think gender matters in the way some people are suggesting it does on this thread. My friend's time was around where some of the women have been hired. Delta is just looking for sharp pilots who will do a good job and contribute something to the Company's success.

How does this work? Is there a monthly bid, or are these Atlanta slots on the advanced entitlement gone after the first batches of new hires are placed?

Any more school house prognostications for hiring and training this summer / fall?

Thanks

Advance entitlements come out when the company needs. In the near future though, I would expect one every 2-3 months.

on the last bid there were 767 slots that went unfilled. Once it is unfilled in a bid they can offer it to new hires. And yes, once it is filled by a new hire, that slot is gone. But as I said, there are more bids coming.

Hiring, I would expect two classes of about 20-25 each month for a near future (six months to a year).
