RAH has a long term goal, they are about the only regional with a plan it seems. Goodluck to the republic pilots, if it all works out ever RJ pilot will wish he/she would have gone to RAH.

Sad. I had a gate agent tell me we could only take 1 jumpseater the other day. I laughed and looked at the 4 pilots trying to get to work and said I am not leaving without yall.

Gate agents... Ahh don't get me started

While I don't entirely disagree with your arguement, we both know this statement is going to raise blood-pressures. I just hope that with all of the growth in the RAH "family," they have some major leverage to ensure a substancial new contract. Doubtful, but I'm hopeful for the sake of the industry.

I don't even work for RAH, I work for their toughest competitor. It just seems to be that RAH is betting it all that their branded midwest/frontier thing will work. Imagine having gotten a job their in 2004 flying one of their something like 20 erj 140s they had and 5 years later making near 100k flying a 100 seat plane, they could end up being the next jetblue.

$100k for 100 seats! What a joke! I don't usually pipe up on these forums, but jet blue captains are making a lot more than 100K a year on the 190. We have plenty of captains at my airline flying 50 seaters making 100k a year. And there are plenty making more than that. Sorry, but its annoying to me to see people say that they would be happy making mediocor wages flying these airplanes!

Because they will be flown at regional pay...

Look at your next paycheck, think that will explain it??

Unless J.A. has plans to buy 190's and Airbuses, Skywest is not even in the same league anymore. Just a realistic observation.

I know. RAH is pretty much an LCC now
