Re: New hire bids
Just saying the Classic is the earliest left seats by seniority at any base. I just think transitioning to the left seat from a plane you're currently flying is easier. Not impossible to do the other way but just easier if you're currently flying the plane your upgrading on. (Maybe old school of me) just my two cents

Re: New hire bids
Heard from a little bird that there should be a bunch of YVR RJ and Q400 spots in the next 3 ground schools. And if for some reason there isn't, you'll be out west before you know it. Took me 3 months on the line.

Re: New hire bids
YYZ is pretty tough to get into nowadays. I've been waiting for 2 months for it It may come tomorrow, or it may come in 6 months. The waiting game is fun, but it sure beats waking at 3:00 to fly to Northern Ontario.avanesso wrote:Black_Tusk wrote:Heard from a little bird that there should be a bunch of YVR RJ and Q400 spots in the next 3 ground schools.

Re: New hire bids
I wouldn't say waiting game is "fun" lol
I waited 7mths for YYC base while in YVR. Wasn't bad and I loved the flying but commuting and waiting for a base does kinda suck.

Re: New hire bids
Not many yyz's either. Any instances of new hires with yyz standing bids getting them awarded? Or still long wait?

Re: New hire bids
YUL is severely understaffed right now on all types plus a number of FOs leaving out west. So they need to expand and fill the positions lost by base transfers.matthew.oommen wrote:FL-280 wrote:YUL: 5 RJ's , 6 Classics and 6 Q's

Re: New hire bids
Heard of a recent new hire getting back to YYZ before the end of his training, I'm sure the PML is helping spots open up in Toronto.Not many yyz's either. Any instances of new hires with yyz standing bids getting them awarded? Or still long wait?

Re: New hire bids
Depends on the aircraft... In my opinion, unless you want to live in Toronto, there's no point of giving up a YUL, YYC or YVR base. Being off reserve is important, but everyone has his or her priorities. The nice thing about Jazz is that there is an answer to everyone's lifestyle choices.jimmy24 wrote:Heard of a recent new hire getting back to YYZ before the end of his training, I'm sure the PML is helping spots open up in Toronto.Not many yyz's either.
