Hey guys here's a few questions I haven't been able to find answers to.

Does Mesa provide single occupancy hotel room in training?

-Yes.

Is Mesa planning to offer a signing bonus or any other type of incentive in the near future?

-Nothing as far as anyone I know has heard.

When will the bases for the 175 be formally announced?

-Unofficially IAH/ORD but I would guess official announcement in the early spring.

Will new hires have any influence over what equipment they get assigned? (I don't care which plane I fly but I am interested in certain bases)

-You get whatever they need you in at the time of your class. That being said you may be able to "choose" a class date based on the equipment the class is going to be run for.

Does Mesa participate in the KCM program?

-Yes, but you have to pay for it not the company. $2.50 a month.

Does Mesa have Long Call Reserve and if so how does it work?

-Technically yes, but it is almost never awarded. They very rarely run staffed well enough to make it work.

How are your lines being effected by 117? Average days off, commutability, etc.

-Remains to be seen but it would be a safe bet to see a slight drop off in line credit and efficiency. As for days off and commutability I would guess they will not change noticeably. Expect 11 days off a month and if your commute is fairly short and easy to be able to do it on one but not both ends of most trips...when you get off reserve.

Thanks!
