First and foremost, Happy Holidays to all. I too am a furloughed U F/A bitten by the airline bug, who is awating recall for MidAtlantic. After furlough, I immediately applied to several different airlines. (Charter, LCC, and Express) I was contacted for interviews by many (nope, Mesa was not...

Once again regarding MDA.... I was interested to know if someone could share some insight on a few questions that I have. 1) What is the estimated total number of aircraft to be operated by MDA? 2) What is the total number of in-flight crews per aircraft needed to sustain operations? -...

It's unfortunate, but that is the information I have been provided with as well. It is my understanding that US Airways will not be taking delivery of the EMB aircraft because they will not be completed as scheduled. I was under the impression that offers for employment were due to be mailed...

I am curious to know if anyone has any information regarding the status of the MidAtlantic recall. I was led to believe that F/A instructors began training on Nov. 3rd and that employment packages would be sent sometime toward the middle of the month with training to begin on Dec. 8th. Is this...

PITbull, May I ask, in your last post, you do not mention anything about more furloughs or any further reductions to the work force. I am curious as to your insight regarding this matter. I understand that the union(s) are finshed giving concessions to the company but, what about...

As I have asked before, Any guesses as to what's next? More Concessions? More Reductions? It seems that both the company and the unions are grappling for position to protect their own interest.

Yep, I've heard the same thing. In a message from MEC President Perry Hayes dated today, AFA will be meeting with the company. This message says in part: "Your MEC President and Acting MEC Vice-President will be meeting with CEO Dave Siegel on Friday. He has asked for a meeting to give...

I can verify that twice is correct about a few things. I attended an open interview with USA3000. (with the rest of the furloughed PIT F/A's) They are only hiring approx. 25 F/A's for PIT. They will only have one aircraft, to start, based out of PIT. They are also utilizing CARNOT for their...

Twice, May I ask where you obtained your information. I was furloughed on 1 Sept, and I have yet to get any straight answers regarding MDA from either the company or AFA. I am approx. number 20 to be recalled, but as of today I have heard nothing. I have been offered a job at another...

I am a F/A that was furloughed on 1 September 03. When I returned the company property (ID, Parking Pass, etc.) I looked at the seniority list before leaving. On that date I was number 15 to be recalled. As of today, I have not heard anyhing from the company regarding MidAtlantic. I am not...
