Upgrade depends on seniority at the airline. Having ATP minimums makes you eligible for upgrade, but does not determine it. Those individuals happen to be in the seniority range that held a 900 upgrade and also happened to be early in their careers.

If you want the 200 your looking at about 8 yrs. as of right now, and the saab you can get much sooner if you don't a need msp base.

hey does anyone know if there are any other good roll aboard luggage bags besides purdy neat? I'm looking for something a bit cheaper. If not, then I guess its purdy neat.

Go cheap or purdy neat (or travel pro I suppose, can't vouch for that one) -200 I believe still require bags to be put in cargo bin. That means the ramp throws it around and its going to take a pounding. Good luck with a cheap bag you might get lucky. Purdy neats have the advantage if you buy at the stopover store of getting instant service and loaner bags. Not that they break easy but zipper pulls get busted and screws come loose.

And the important thing a purdy neat looks like a crew bag. That means the ramp is a lot more likely not to pull it with other passenger bags. The only people I hear for the most part getting there bag pulled are people that don't have the common crew bags. Always fun getting to your overnight and having an out station pull your bag and not tell anyone and you don't find out til the hub or overnight that your bag is a few states away

The stopover prices are very good especially since they will be wauranteeing and repairing it. I also posted earlier get a cheep flight case which may sound contadictary to getting the expensive purdy neat but to elaborate I control the fate of my flight case the purdy neat is in the ramps hands.

The only scuffs that my flight case has are from the van drivers/cabbies.

Anyone have an idea why some of the Saabs are going up to Quebec City? I have been hearing that a couple handfuls of captains and fo's are being sent up there? Repainting, maybe?
