We'll see Tuesday I guess. But transfer or not, its would likely generate hiring, which is the focus of this thread.

Disagree. .. huge growth at ACr. I would imagine hiring will be steady. But the lack of retirements is really slowing things. Its still a bubble of guys who will likely retire in the net 5 years. Im sure the company is getting anxious, they dont really want to see 400 retirements in 1 year.

So what other things are worth discussing for those looking at Emirates and Dubai? Thanks.

You can't be specifically forced to the LCC. If you can no longer hold your position due to a reduction then you can bid to wherever your seniority will hold. I would expect normally that you could be a mainline RP or the LCC. LCC is the place to be as a new hire I think. Better schedule and same pa...

New hires will be YZ. Guessing E190 FO and LCC 319 FO. It's certainly conceivable there could be new hires going to 767 FO in the LCC. Know more in the next 2 weeks.

Pretty sure four year flat rate is the same for LCC and mainline.

Introduction of DC pension for new hires
4 year fixed pay rate (hourly) for new hires
Ability to create an LCC, use other tier 2 carrier than jazz
Pay grouping providing uplift for EMJ, B767 and A330
Some reserve rules improvements

That's the stuff a new hire may find headline worthy...

You can bid it... The highest position you may be able to hold as a new guy is A320 FO.

20 per month UFN. They would like to get 40/ month but the CA would need to settled so pilots can go elsewhere besides the EMJ or RPs.

T4's are coming out and it seems a lot of my WJ friends are pleasantly surprised with what they earned. FO's average $100-120k (guy on other thread made $150k), Captains around $200k. I'm not an AC guy. I am curious though....how much OT is required to make these numbers happen? 5 days/month? 10 da...

Keep in mind there should be a bid in March you can bid whatever you want and will likley hold it then.

Critique as you go. It feels a lot like a hard day in the sim. I believe that it's about 3.5hrs there isnt a limit but I'm sure it would be cut off somewhere. And for the entrance... Go under the big air Canada logo pick up the phone and dial the extension listed :D Then after you check in you get t...

2 weeks.

I'm sure they'd make it work. The people working in pilot hiring are very friendly and understanding.

They are showing at least 4 new hires training for VR A340 RP in the new year. That's a good start for the west coasters.

Same situation. Well worth it.

Reality check... Where you were educated makes a huge difference to persective employers in all industries... Do you think a doctor from Harvard being hired before the guy from Talahasse Party U at a good medical facility is an unfair practice? Employers get to pick the programs they find are the mo...

It depends on your set up in YYZ. RP less days worked and more sitting around YYZ waiting to go flying. EMJ more flying, less days sitting around. If you dont mind hanging around Toronto RP, if you just want to work and go home, probably EMJ. Good Luck.

Course starting Oct 3rd. Not sure what will be offered to that group- gaurantee some EMJ though.

Looks like a Sept 25th course planned too.

They are backed by a band that considers (or at least used to) them essenital to the community... so there is money to get throw to them if they can get Transport Canada saticfied.

Does anyone know if the AOC has been reinstated? Who have they designated at flight ops management?

Hearing rumors of some pretty good sized classes all the way to the new year.

Borek and First Air seem to show up consistently.

I'd do YAV to Duluth to US Sault Ste Marie to Ottawa. Clear customs in DLH and YOW. Come back domestically... Maybe Sudbury to somewhere on the north shore of superior to Sioux Lookout to YAV. Bring resumes, take advantage of the tour. Stay off the open lake, follow the transcan highway. Make sure y...
