Keep the faith guys....I know things change daily or even hourly, but just spoke with a very good friend of mine (OAK 4/5 yr f/o) who said that word on the line is that they don't have enough guys to fill the schedule because many of the more senior f/o's like himself are being tagged with less desirable trips--just 3rd party info for what it's worth. Rest assured, I'm sure my expectations will be exceeded once I start and complete training, but if you can financially wait for class in this pool, I KNOW IT WILL BE WORTH THE WAIT. Good luck guys!
 
I have no problem w/what Tanker Clown says. He puts out what he hears, like the rest of us. I don't always agree w/what he says, but that's all right. It's a challenging time for the entire industry.

I'm really excited to be going to training, but I'm also keeping a good back-up plan as well. Thanks for keeping it real Tanker.

Rumor has it that SWA is losing money in DEN, IAD, PHL, SFO, and get this...MDW. Everyone is getting slammed by fuel prices. The article in yesterday's USA Today said "SWA strongly hinted that operational cutbacks are likely." Translation, more slowed growth...maybe even parking jets.

Maybe SWA should match some of the recent fare increased by the majors. Afterall, SWA is the price setting leader.
 
I'm out!!!!!

I'm dryin off!! Got the call from Ronna today. April 23 is the magical date.

Don't be jealous tanker......

Your time in the trailer park soon may come to an end if Delta can stay afloat. Then you can buy your wife some new teeth and get your son out of jail.:beer:

I'm not jealous. Especially not jealous about your year plus on reserve in OAK. Not a bad deal if you live there though.
 
Just have them make it without the side pockets for an easier fit in the 300/500. There is a bolt under the jumpseat that seems to shred the side pockets over time. I use the same bag and agree, it's the best.

:cartman: Um, yea. Just like they were going to cancel the 23rd class.

Dude, you are in the last class for the foreseeable future. You are going to need at least two whole classes behind you before you are even off reserve in OAK. Let alone bid out of there. It's the bottom for a reason. Like guys getting mugged at commuter hotels. Last I heard was that after April, no classes until Aug or so. So those guys will finish in Oct or so. They'll get IOE in Oct and their artificial lines in Nov (which will make them senior to you in an artificial way) and then finally bid in Dec.

Best case, you get off reserve for December, but get a 4 day over Christmas...out of OAK.
