Go to RAH, at least you'll be able to sleep better at night, and you won't have to worry about hitching a ride home. I've personally turned away many gojets pilots, so it does happen, and I know I'm not the only one.
Funny story, had a g7 guy ask for the Jumpseat a while back, I asked for his ID he said it was in his bag, I said "ok who do you work for?" He said Transtates Holdings, I said "which aircraft do you fly?" He then took the slip out of my hands and went right up the jetway. The gate agent said that this was the second flight with seats he couldn't get on. Can't imagine why!

Why don't you move onto something that doesn't fly an RJ because it sounds like you hate everyone around you.
Also, does it make you feel like a big man when you turn down jumpseaters. I'm very impressed with how you think you are saving the profession 1 rejected jumpseater at a time.
I want to be your friend.

I'm not so sure why GoJetsss would hire now for jets they might start getting in the fall of 2013.
Also, Delta's story is the new planes are required as "bribes" to force DCI regionals to swap out their 50s early. GoJetsss doesn't fly 50s for Delta, therefore no reason for Delta to bribe them.

Are guys getting lines right away or sitting reserve for a while, because commuting for reserve is completely different than commuting for a line. I agree though, being home based is even better. With all the hiring ( 40+ guys in a class), will upgrade still be quick?

also, the new hire class sizes are causing additional growth rumors to circulate.

Of course there are rumors of new growth. Gojets is the absolute bottom of the barrel as far as regionals go. The guys who work for dirt cheap with little to no union representation are a codeshare's wet dream.
