No EFBs or airside service. Lots of talk only. The airplane has laptops for most manuals, MELs, FOM, etc. But you carry your own Jepps.

Overnight hotels are between really good to good. At least that is my opinion. Hilton, Hyatt, Sheraton, Holiday Inn, etc. All with some crew discounts and free wifi, some with free breakfast and brown bags for morning crews.

Like hunchcowboy said hotels are nice to very nice, however in my opinion...I flipping hate the hotels, don't get me wrong it is nice to stay at a Hyatt Regency, what reall sucks about those is there is nothing around them (they seem to be more of a convention center or trade group meeting place) and while we do receive a discount, 10% or 25% off on a $40 hamburger, fries and a coke makes it a $30 hamburger, fries and a coke.

But like I said that is how I feel. My suggestion, is to stay at a nice hotel (not a super nice--something like a Hampton or Double Tree near something like a mall or a target or a restaurant)

For those that have applied fairly recently, how long before you received the call to interview?

If you have a good lor shouldn't take that long. If you don't, like 4 years

Also Spirit guys, looking through your timetables, I noticed that you have a significant number of flights that leave outstations at like 2am. Are these highspeeds or day trips? It seems like they would be very fatiguing

Red eye turns from FLL. Pretty senior actually.

I applied back in September and wanted to update my resume. I can't find a place to do that on the website. It seems like the only option is to apply for the job. When I do that, it comes back and says I already applied. Any ideas?

Join the club.

what club...?

 

[i fly boxes]

anyone that interviewed on the 1st receive a class date yet? Just curious to see how far out the class dates are going

I recently received an email to fill out a more detailed application from the HR department. Does anyone "in the know" have any idea if this email was distributed to everyone that has a application on file, or might this signify that I might be called for a possible interview? Thanks!

2nd email is good news. You should be getting a call after that.

 

[EHE2]

Agreed

2nd email is good news. You should be getting a call after that.

Awesome, keeping my fingers crossed, thanks!!

 

[lrb]

if you recieve an email for a full application and do not get a phone call in a certain amount of time is that an indication that they are going to take a pass on you?

 

[huncowboy]

I really don't know the answer to that. All my friends that got in got the call after they filled out the emailed application. If there are no background issues I don't see what else would prevent them. Probably the dog ran away with the application is my best guess. They are not exactly organized.

How long for the 2nd email/detailed app? I filled out the short one about a month ago, still no 2nd email. Should I get my Master's degree?
