They want to start 2 newhire classes every two weeks, each with 30 pilots.
Large bonuses now being offered when you upgrade and eventually go to AA, totalling up to $150,000. $30k when you upgrade + $70k when you go to AA + an extra $25k when you go for each year where you're available for 900 hours of work for (maximum of two years). 900 hours is the min guarantee per month anyway so easily achieved just by being on reserve, and includes other qualifying activities such as annual leave/vacation etc.
So if anyone wants to come let me know before you apply and I'll put a recommendation in, and do what I can to help.
You will be putting recommendations in on people you dont even know but approach you via PPrune ?
Thanks for the heads up - will be speaking to the company direct without lining your pockets champ
