Don't just go to Encore if you think that it's a 'quick' route into AC. 1.) I'm sure that the Encore recruiters will smell that a mile away; and 2.) What if AC doesn't interview or hire you - will you still be happy at Encore?

7) right now i know for a fact from friends at jazz upgrades to the classic are now 2 years min. Q4 3-4. And Crj 3-5. 

Actually no.
While i agree with most of your points above mentioned , this is completely out of line.
With a little over 2.5 years at jazz not only am i able to hold captain on any equipment at any base . But i would hold it with plenty below me.

Last week i flew with 1 dh8 captains both just 1 year in the company.

So i dont know where you get those numbers from.

Here are a few things I know for a fact....

1) Applying now because flow is good does not guarantee it will still be good by the time your number comes up;

2) Not applying now because the flow is bad does not guarantee you won't bang your head against the wall a year or so later cause you feel you missed the boat;

3) Ignore everything you hear/read that comes from a friend of a friend of a friend.

6) Jazz is a contract company for AC. They could take work away tomorrow and the place gets shut down.
Not true. Jazz has a CPA with AC til at least 2025

No it does not. You will assigned a seniority number on the second day of ground school. Names are drawn from a hat. Pilots coming directly from other ALPA airlines get first priority.

Good luck.

Haven't heard anything yet either. I did email my recruiter the other day asking if she had an update and she told me they were still waiting to hear from the scheduling department. So who knows if 10 September is even a thing.

Who are these Jazz pilots? Because on the line, no one really knows anything about GS or training trends. I'm more worried about why my crew snack didn't show up on ice. Those who say they know are likely just spreading a rumor they heard from a guy who heard from a guy who's seeing a girl in HR.

The only thing that is certain, is nothing is certain. The call will come when it comes and GS will start when it starts. Nothing is in your control until you start training. All you can do is wait.

So true, Chop lol. I can't wait to have your snack problems :lol: It's just the excitement of starting is all. As I\m sure so many of you have already experienced.
