yes....it looks like asa's 70/90 capt rates are about the same as xjt's 50 rates. However, asa's 70/90 FO rates are indeed a couple bucks more then xjt's 50 FO rates.
Curious about your (XJT) good contract? what is your min day credit? what is your deadhead credit? What is your duty rig? If someone could post that info...and others like it...that would be very helpful.
Thanks

Just to clarify that, we get 1:1 hours for every scheduled duty hour past 12.

XJT also has the repo pay (:30 min for int'l and very little for domestic - 10 minutes, I think); 100% CX pay; some small amount for going through Customs - again, :10, I think.
13.5 hours max scheduled duty, 15.5 hours max

+1. As a Skywest Pilot, I welcome a SLI with all 3 airlines. I think nothing but good can come from one list and one contract!

I hated when the media kept say the Delta NW "merger". Delta BOUGHT NW they did not merge with them. ASA is BUYING ExperssJet not merging with them. I don't expect the seniority list to be put on the bottom of ours, but I don't think me or any of my fellow pilots at ASA pilot should lose anything or positions because we are BUYING them. Oh Yeah since when has ASA had a bad reputation. IF we are so bad why are we about to be the biggest regional in the country.

Don't expect much from the XJT FAs. Nice people for the most part, but nothing to look at. The Beastie Boys wrote a song about our FAs after being a passenger on our flights.

OK - after 16 pages we've danced around the topic long enough. Please tell me about the Skywest FAs! Are the rumors of young honeys true? I've seen a handful that were just friggin' BLAZING hot, but overall what is the truth?
