That's not what PD told me today. They are still waiting for official word of the dates, but are planning for one class in Feb and possibly two in Mar (I had to ask twice).

That's the word as of today. Who knows what it will be tomorrow.

A month ago there were supposed to be 3 classes in January.

On another note, my buddy had heard that the plan with the over 60 retired guys was to reinterview. Apparently, some won't be welcomed back. The ones they do want back will come in mixed with the poolies. He said that it will go 2 poolies then a retired guy and so on. So, if they bring on 150 guys this year then 100 would be poolies and 50 (supposing they had this many) retired guys.

boy they must really want to come back, if they are willing to take first year pay, then sit reserve at OAK forever!!!

I don't think their ex-wives care about what year one pay is. They still want the their full alimony.

SWA put out an internal press release stating that any retired pilots wanting to come back will have to re-interview, when SWA starts interviewing again. Have they changed or amended that release?

Senio, do you have a copy of that press release? The only thing I got from PD on that matter (yesterday) was that management was still in discussions about what to do with any over-60 guys asking to come back. They were still trying to get a better feel of how many would be asking to come back.

It was on SWAlife a week or so ago. It should still be there if you scroll down a bit. Hang in there poolies, we know the wait is long but it WILL be worth it in the end.

Actually they put it out twice (maybe even a third time)...I'm calling BS on them doing any poolie jumping

This is the plus side of not interviewing anyone right now. Age 65 is closer each day they wake up.
