How'd that work out for them?

About as well as it'll work out for those going the other way today.

This question is for existing SWA pilots. Since the airline will start hiring soon. Do you have any advice for those pilots who are currently in the hiring pool and those pilots who are applying to your airline for the first time?

How many pilots are in the pool and can we expect Southwest to start accepting applications again anytime soon?

 

[Bigoober]

I would guess about 175 in the pool with at least 100 being pulled in the first quarter if I remember the earlier posts correctly.

Don't know if this opens up the app process again, but I thought I heard that it was going to.

180 in the pool. hiring 200 next year. Hiring is due to March flight increase and summer pilot shortages. Not taking anything away from AAI.

Application window not open yet. Stay tuned should open up real soon. Pool could get drained pretty quick depending on how many are on mil assignments, no takers, etc.

2 classes of 20 in January. Just some things tanker clown told me.

Every organization must restructure at some point... it never fails. Nothing stays the same forever.
