I know there's been other threads about this, but just curious how many people have the CDHP health plan over the PPO? I'm a single guy that goes to the doctor about twice a year and I don't know if I can justify the extra $1100 bucks a year for the PPO over the CDHP.

as for my stats, i'm single with no kids also, so to me it makes the most sense.

I'm pretty sure your parents/dependents can fly for free on Skywest operated Alaska Express flights, but other than the people who are 'dedicated' it's just ZED fares.

Is the training department booked up until March? Thats a lot of back log. They can train almost 40 per month. That is a lot of hiring as well.

When did you interview? How long did it take for a phone call or email after the interview for the go/no-go?

They were approved last April to go over 70 a class due to need. The backlog is from all those coming up on their seat locks and want to transition to the crj from the bro.
