I'm a year-2 CommutAir guy and assuming things stay constant I'll hit upgrade in 2yr2mo. The LOA raising FO pay, 4 free hotels in base per month, and a solid commuter clause has made life much better. Gross pay and per diem is in the upper 30K/yr range for line holders. What the others are saying about cancellation pay is huge too. United will pull our flying down in EWR when the weather gets bad. I would have lost a lot of pay without that. I also know of 2 current C5 guys who got hired at Republic, then quit because it was so bad over there. Take it for what it's worth. Hope to see you in the baby Dash soon.
