Forced Ten days off, more than 100 hours credit.
I'm timing out soon.
Enjoy the free time.
They will get more sim time.

The messed up part is that if you time out its "your fault" even if you are awarded month after month of 90 hours plus of block.

Scheduled for the interview next week.
Assuming the option is still available, what would everyone at SKW choose aircraft wise if they were in a position such as mine, CRJ or E175?
SFO base would be ideal.

CRJ. You're seniority will improve exponentially faster on the CRJ, especially in SFO. You can transition anytime after a year.

I think it went to 24 months on the seat lock a year ago. Someone more knowledgeable should comment on it, but I don't think you can transition for 24 months.

That said, take the CRJ.

Nope, it's only 24 months for the bro, which will be nonexistent in a few months.

Correct, everything else is 12 months (except voluntary downgrade, which has always been 14 months).

Are we sure about that? In the new PPM it looks like 24 months...

Yes.

Read it again, it's confusing.

The 24 month jet-to-jet lock is for a transition following a transition, ie a CRJ guy who goes to the ERJ and decides he doesn't like it has to wait 24 months to come back.

Several paragraphs down it states the standard seat lock is 12 months, which applies to new-hires.
