How long is the probation period for a new hire? Once you reach that period can you advance and apply for another position?

"For the first month, new hire Flight Attendants will be assigned a line schedule that cannot be altered. During the following five months of probation"

 

Looks like 6 months!

Yep. It's 6 months for most positions although there are a few positions (crew scheduling, I believe) that require at least a one year commitment.
