US Air charging to jumpseat/nonrev???
From U's ALPA site, I saw a post that said it only affects non-wholly owned U code-sharing regionals, not mainline or wholly owned employees. If you don't work for Mainline, a wholly owned, or are retired with less than 25 years active service, the non/rev cost will be $20 per leg plus $20 to... -

Trouble ahead for Low Cost Carriers???
Just jump'n in here MedFlyer, Are you sure about this? If so, please call the folks at USAirways and let them know. It was always my understanding that U could never make much money out of these 3 cities...even though the planes were always packed. Hence they reduced service out of these... -

12 Jan Class???
Thanks Chase, Your "ramblings" are always welcome (and appreciated). Keep 'em coming. Whenever you can get the scoop on the additional 5 delivery dates, please let us know. If they're sooner than later, it should make a couple of classes worth of poolies very happy. Looking forward to '04... -

12 Jan Class???
Question Chase, So if my cypher'n is correct, and they're looking at a net gain of 6 a/c by the end of April, does that equate to approx 3 classes trained and ready to fly by then? Also, where do the other 5 fall in the schedule? They're still taking 47 in '04, right? Coop ps- Heat... -

The silence is deafening!!
Sorry, but I had no idea that the freight guys were so in tune the doings of the poolies at Southwest.....or cared. First of all, let's get one thing straight. I don't dismiss anyone here on this board as "insignificant," especially the freight guys. I have more respect for you guys than you... -

The silence is deafening!!
Mailman, Just get our packages here in time for Christmas. You have a job to do. We have one to look forward to. Everyone is entitled to be excited about their new job. So cut 'em some slack. -

Poolies pick your Hub
OAK falls into the category of ANY . For those of you poolies who remember W8n4swa, he's got a new crashpad out there now.....and it floats!.....perfect for experienced poolies who know what it's like to bob in the water. I'm not sure if I'd be able to cram a life vest into my rollarboard... -

Poolies pick your Hub
New ICAO three letter identifier ANY (hint....hint....get me there (subliminal message)....hint) ....just wanting to "Move about the country." :) But if was going to pick, I'd go for BWI. After the temp dropped over the weekend, my wife asked for a write-in vote for MCO. :cool: -

SWA Newhire class
AJ, I think it's the Cat in the Hat.....he's got their tounge. Seems like a pretty quiet bunch to me....the Stealthy Class. Anyhow, to the 4, maybe 5, who let us know....congrats! And, oh um, pass the word to the other guys that's it OK to say something, or even anything. We're glad to... -

Merry Christmas Swa Poolies
AJ, Good thing you're an expert poop cleaner technician.....Many of us have developed many excellent skills during this long wait. :D I had heard from LL that class dates were to be firmed up by about now. She had said they'd begin letting us know soon. Awesome news....awesome news! Coop -

SWA Newhire Class for Christmas
LiveFreeorDie, Go to your user cp, and click on "edit ignore list." Then type the dude's name in who you'd like to ignore. Then.....Presto! The guy's post will show up as: "This person is on your Ignore List." Like Houman said.....Really sweet. -

SWA Newhire Class for Christmas
Hey Opie, At least that would gaurantee a 100% load factor every flight. You'd have to forget about commuting on the jumpseat though. :D Coop -

SWA Poolies & Background Checks
This is good news guys.....they're thinking about us sooner, rather than later. I know they don't want ANY poolie to miss his or her date with the Schoolhouse because of some little technicality with anything (would be a major bummer for anybody who's waited this long already). This way... -

Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure?
Wo....Dude....Are you kidding me? What else would you expect from a CEO who quotes Austin Powers? Ted to launch in February; is Bill far behind? Dateline: Thursday November 13, 2003 United Airlines confirmed that its new low-fare operation will be named Ted (ATWOnline, Nov. 11)... -

Yet Another Take on SWA Hiring for '04
SWA training capability and projections For what it's worth, this is straight from www.southwest.com (info on the training center). I guess if it went well over 500, they'd just contract out the sims somewhere....at least until they added some more? It's kind of hard to imagine hiring over... -

737 systems review CD
Awesome CD Attention all SWA poolies: I got the CD-ROM in the mail today and fired that puppy up. I want to say that I'm very impressed with the presentation. I just wish I had this CD when I first did my type and later my initial on the -300 at my former airline. For an initial, or a... -
