Homestead Suites Miami. It's where we stay for ground school, so you'll have an opportunity to meet some of the current crews. It's also a 15 minute walk to the sim center where the interviews are being held.

Holiday Inn Express is also nice. Within walking distance of Pan Am and offer a $59 rate. Nice people and good van service.

Any early word on where the 400s will be flying and for whom?

If you were hired and lucky enough to have a choice between two great types, what are the pros and cons of choosing either the 777 or the 400 as a newbie? I understand that the 400 is new to the fleet - does that mean less flying opportunity? Is there a benefit to choosing an existing fleet type (i.e., 777) with contracts?

For those pilots in training on the Classic who were given 744 and 777 slots, any word on how those slots were divided/chosen?

 

[skypine69]

400=upper deck 777=no upper deck. Should be an easy choice.

 

[FOB]

Slots were by class seniority, went from top to bottom until 8 peeps had bid off the -200.

How did they determine seniority?? Birthdates, ssn??
