Oh no viper it's OK. We have profit sharing too.... 3k a year. It's sooooo much. /S
According to lifers anyway.


Mainline profit sharing is actual money, but the guys here think we have it good

A lot more than 3k per year for CAs. A lot more, 12K for me in 2016.

This place is what it is, a regional. Treat it as such. Works for some and not for others. I was like many of you when I was a bitter FO, only seeing the negatives, not the positives.

Upgrading made this job a lot better, and I'm glad I did before getting to mainline. Just remember, all companies have their shortcomings. As Viper pointed out, the new contract at SWA blows AA's out of the water, of which AA's is still relatively new in the Airline World. AA really hoodwinked the Union, and was sold to the pilot group hook, line, and sinker.

You're including all the performance bonuses and such. That's not profit sharing.

Check again

Of course profit sharing at Skywest isn't the same as delta, have you seen delta profits lately? I won't complain that at a regional as a captain I get about 10k of bonus a year and it's not because we can't recruit like others, it's because as a regional we are doing financially pretty good which means stability. Have you seen our share prices lately? Have you seen how many people we add a month?

Southwest is not a regional, their pay and work rules are better of course, my point was unless SWA is your final destination idk if I'd sacrifice my QoL for 20k but that's me and my situation, respect to anyone that wants to go there or go there and move on.

Take your name patch and shoulder bars off before you go to the bar.
