Denver is the Holiday Inn Airport. Nice hotel. Microwave and fridge in each room and free wireless. Lots of eating and shopping within walking distance. I think all 900 training is in YUL and the 200 can either be in Denver or Montreal. Welcome aboard.

Navy Blue neckties actually w/ stains.

Neckties are not approved apparel onboard the Saab this time of year.

One of the best training departments in the industry...majors included! I've had several colleagues move on to majors say Mesaba training is better, and it's eons ahead of the training department at my current airline. You won't be disappointed.

Free internet at the homestead in msp/eagan. Although you might have to ask to wave the fee. They seem to give free internet to xj employees.

Not sure of the hotels in MSP, since I live in MSP. As for the training program, on the majority all the instructors are top notch. I have not had any bad experiences with anyone on the ground or in the sim. If you need help, ask for it. Show an attitude, guess what......you will not like how you are treated and will not last. Show up on time and have a good attitude and you will do well.

Neck ties, best investment is a navy blue tie...of the zipper variety.

Do not be that guy who wears the back tie and cannot tell that he bought the black pants at Kohls instead of the blue ones.... (haggars rock!)

For anyone interested junior Saab captain at XJ fell to 3.5 years(March ’04 hire) on today’s (8/7) vacancy award. Both MSP and DTW. DTW slightly junior.

How do you "wave" a fee?

Is this some sort of surfing move that I should know about?
