I realise these questions may have already been answered but I appreciate any updated information. Three questions:
1. Over the last 6-12 months, what has been the fleet allocation among newhires (744 or 330/340)? Any estimates?
2. For those hired on to a particular fleet, to what extent has previous type experience played in fleet allocation? For example, do A319/20 rated pilots get A340/330 most often? Or is it based completely on fleet need at the time?
3. Can pilots ever bid another fleet? If hired onto the A330/340, do you not get the opportunity to bid the 744 or future 787?
Cheers for any update. PMs welcome.
