Oh, and if you go interview with them, expect to fly standby and you stand a good chance of not getting a seat that late in the day. Just another way they screw you. I won't be filling the 21 April shuttle America seat.
FYI. It's industry standard in the regional field to get flown stdby to your interview. It's not a RAH thing and definitely not them trying to screw you (there's plenty of time for that once you hit the line here, lol!). Of All 5 airlines I've ever interviewed at, not a single one positive spaced me to the interview.
Shoot. Many majors, lcc's etc, you're on your own to get to the interview...
