ON THE JET: SFO, LAX do have 1st year FOs. But not for long, most of us in SFO/LAX got the award before the 100 Bro guys hired a few months before us were coming off seat lock, and we are all coming up on year 2 within the next 2 months.
Without explaining the whole logic, how many people/size of base/who has bids in/transitions/etc. I will say this. If you are hired after reading this post, there are nearly 2x the number of guys between me and your seniority # if you are hired tomorrow than the # of guys based there. It historically was 2-3 years wait, it went down for a few of us who got in, but if you are hired now, 2+ years for SFO/LAX is likely.

Does anyone know which hotel they're putting us in for the March 26th RJ class? I didn't get an email confirming my hotel accomodations and it's too late to get a hold of anyone about it. My email originally said I'd be staying at Candlewood Suites but when I called I was told they're not having any Skywest employees for the next few months for renovations...

That being said, I believe Bro classes stay at the Comfort Suites (that's where my class stayed for differences). I heard second hand that the class two after mine got put in the Radisson across the street. If that's the case you're in luck because that's a pretty nice place.

Raddison. Hot breakfast every morning. Right after the cold shower.
It's not really that cold, especially if there are only 12 of you.

Yeah, no doubt it must be a lot worse than the Comfort Suites. I fondly remember the meth head pounding the floor above me all night, as I dreamed of the delicious powdered egg breakfast in the morning. Yep, I bet the Radisson can't beat that!
