Is Mesa a place to be even if you can’t get into Aviate? You don’t really hear much about guys going to Spirit or Frontier like you do from Skywest or Envoy with those two just being an example. Of course United is a dream destination for many, but maybe I just don’t see the Mesa guys on IG jumping ship like other regionals. And with y’all’s future jump in pay, it seems like not a bad place like lots of people make it out to be.

This is probably a YMMV type of situation. Aviate was one of my motivators but then again several of my flight instructors from ASU started with Mesa and ended up at Allegiant, Delta and FedEx. It is doable, you are in charge of your own attitude and potential I figure.
I'd like to know more about this, I am only coming onboard with my ATP/CTP starting in a couple of weeks. I have zero knowledge about airline dynamics at the moment.
The pay doesn't seem very desirable, especially if you are single, maybe the bonus would help a bit, I am also reading about 300% stuff, but I am also expecting growing pains.

I’ve read about a new contract, so hopefully you guys that work there get something soon. And I guess you’re right, maybe the guys at the WO are more the influencers so I guess that’s why I never see any Mesa guys on IG to follow, which isn’t a bad thing if you’re out flying instead of making content. And it’s good to hear guys are getting hired at other places, that’s always a plus.

Add the delay for sims, probably 3.5 years? Although, if the QoL is a lot higher (elsewhere) wouldn't that also mean a lot slower upgrade times? Skywest is posting upgrade times similar on their website, but their APC update indicates 5+ years.
