And I don't have an unreal expectation that I'll be at a major within a couple of years. There's guys way more qualified than me that will get on before I do. So if I'm going to be at a regional for a few years, I'd like to be living at home. Any other news Skywest right now?
Hey jay I don't think you can go wrong with making the move. The pay scale is much higher here and despite the staffing **** show this place has become I still feel like my QOL is pretty good. I have been here for a year and am able to get a nice line with a good number of days off and good credit (no weekends off yet). Good luck!

What is meant by "possibility"? I'm looking at Skywest very hard and am just curious.

The company has the option to raise 1st year pay up to $36.50 without consulting Sapa.

If it passes first year pay will go up to $30. The company can increase to $36.50 without having anymore negotiations or another pay vote.

In the last package that passed there was an option to raise first year pay to $24 which the company used a few months later.

ok whats wrong with this one then? I just listened to the call and seems like allot more than the first offer a few months ago...

also curious about the
"Time Away From Base (TAFB) Guarantee of 1:4 for pairing construction:
▫ Minimum 1 hour pay credit for each 4 hours TAFB applied to each pairing."

what exactly does this mean as it could be some serious boku bucks in some ways...
