American hiring this summer yes or no?

[FlyinGuy]

So if someone gets hired off the street by October, how long should should it be until they get furloughed?

Can you say TRAINING FLOAT?

An AA friend of mine who has been furloughed for 11.5 years just got his recall notice yesterday, FWIW.

DAL/NWA & UAL/CAL merged before age 65 and furloughed no one.

However, AMR/USA are merging with age 65 retirements. I don't think you'll see any furloughs at all. There may be a slowdown in hiring with PBS implementation, but a training float and the new rest rules should keep things moving. :beer:

Regardless, newAmerican will lose at least 800 pilots in the next two years, 1200 in the next 3 and 1700 in the next 4 years while growing internationally.

But shrinking domestically. If you think the merger of 1+1 will be much more than 1.5, you've been smoking some good stuff. The merger will only benefit the top dudes with lotsa stock.

Yes, Eagle is hurting to get pilots now.

 

[PGTB]

Awhile back someone posted that scope was being relaxed? Any details on that? And would that just mean more growth for RAH and the likes and not mainline newAA?

The last AA furloughee starts class on 5 June.

The last Eagle flow up will go to AA in the 21 August class.

Margin of error = plus or minus a couple of months.

We should be hiring by September-ish.

How long do you see both carriers hiring separately? Also, anyone hired after the date of the merger on both sides is date of hire right?

New intel from latest recall class/VP Flight prediction: they are about all wrapped up with outside vendors to begin the new hire dept by Oct of this year. Last pilot on furlough list projected to be called by August.

I believe nothing that the VP Flight says.
