Re: Best aircraft for 1 day pairings?

If you want 1 day pairings based in YYZ and don't care about the destination, is the 737, 319/20 or Rouge better?

TC Exam Marks affect getting job?

During recruitment, AC requests a print off from the online Transport Canada portal with all of your exam marks. Is AC looking for a certain minimum exam mark on your Transport Canada exams when you send them your list of marks? Is it possible not to get the job based on just your exam marks?

Re: 2024 GS Schedule?

Can anyone in the hiring pool expect to receive a ground school date for sometime in January 2024 then? Or is the hiring pool not going to be even looked at for next year?

Re: E2 pax loads on eastern routes

On Porter's website when you book a flight and go to select your seats for same day or next day travel I am seeing this. I am not sure if this is accurate or not which is why I was asking. I am not sure what the reality is. If the average passenger loads are actually much higher than the 40 passenge...

Re: E2 pax loads on eastern routes

It appears the passenger loads for most western flights are still only 30% full when I try and make a dummy booking and see the number of seats available. Is this true? Is this a concern at all? Are the loads expected to get better with Florida and California coming online soon?

Re: OT at Westjet

When there is OT, is there a lot of 1 day pairings available from YYZ? In normal schedule bids, are 1 day pairings still easy to get in YYZ?

Re: Interview

If WestJet is placing people in a hiring pool now does that mean they are only taking people with more experience and people in the pool won't get the job? Or is there a backlog in training and they are waiting for a ground school opening?
