Has anybody heard anything about AE still hiring? I along with others put in our applications a few weeks ago and have not heard a single thing back...Just wondering if they have stalled the hiring process because of all of the AA recalls.

Where there AA f/a's that went to AE and are maybe going to go babk to AA?(does it work that way?)
 
Bowler said in one of his letters that Eagle will be putting 30-40 FA's a month through class for at least the next few months.
 
I was in the AE flight attendant class that began on Oct. 1. We were told that AE would continue hiring through next year. There were 13 of us in the class of 39 that were offered the recall to AA. Last I heard, 10 of the 13 of us had left AE training to return to AA.

SkyHag,

Here is the 411 on AE for you:

From what I have been told, AE is going to be possibly hiring well into next summer and maybe longer. Good luck to you.

WHY....I don't know because alot of people I have talked to have said the worst things about them. :( However,I am holding out hoping that maybe the new contract will help things out a bit?
