No Offense, I'm glad you're satisfied with 12-13 days off at the bottom of the pile. I've been at SKW for a year now and I've NEVER had a month with less than 14 days off. I also don’t think it’s worth just being satisfied at a bottom rung airline. Please, no offense.

I do agree that if you go to MAG, TSA, GoJets, and PSA etc; odds are you've heard the news about what you're getting yourself into, so don't *****. You chose it so suck it up or get the hell out!

Upgrade, nothing fluctuates more, it’s based on so many factors: airline growth, pilot group seniority, pilot group FLT times (some may not have the mins to upgrade regardless of if their number can hold it), pilot group preference (only want a certain domicile), attrition and many others. So when we hear of an upgrade time at anyone, regional or major, that's what the time frame is right NOW and only right NOW. If you just got hired don’t plan on what you see until your number gets called, it’s a cyclic industry.
