Haha, jeez guys, I used an emoji.
. It's not like I said Skywest has hotter Flight attendants, even though... they do.

So, for your travel bennies, are you still standby? Does Envoy priority on American go by time of checkin like at American? If so that blows for senior pilots but I guess it's great for you guys.
The flow is pretty awesome but aren't you guys only averaging 15-16 days off? Do you guys have any kind of min credit per day or just duty rigs? Seems like with so few days off you should be getting pay in the high 80's. Luckily, I think with all the retirements coming that Envoy should be able get some more of these QOL essentials. Good luck!

If you're going to work, you just make sure to give yourself 2 flights. If you don't make it, go home and enjoy the day off (commuter policy). If you're trying to get home and the loads and jumpseat's are all full, there's a few ways to get creative with a 2 leg commute.
Being a high priority for the jumpseat will help a ton. Most flights are on an airbus, which has 2 jumpseats up front. I can't tell you how many times I've been bailed out by getting the 2nd jumpseat while other airline guys are left at the game.
Hope that helps. PM me if you have anymore questions about it.

Now, I can usually get home on the flight I want but its not a sure thing. On the plus side, most of the flights are on the 319 so it has 2 jump seats which helps.

Not trying to start a ****ing match here, but Skywest, most non-wholly owned for that matter, flight benefits suck in comparison. As for the schedules, well they get better every month. I genuinely believe they are comparable to most now, at least in most catagories.

. Just a rumor though. 15-16 days off seems pretty nice. Is that low compared to others? Like significantly low?
