My summary...

Top end pay rates are decent for this year, but no COLA adjustments make them woefully inadequate 4 years down the road.

Per diem is good. Top of the industry.

401k just average.

PPS is a nice additional benefit, but not tied to INC. Sure that works in SkyWest Airlines' pilots favor at the moment, but could lose out big if ExpressJet ever gets their operation turned around.

Bonuses: Too much company discretion = loss of negotiating leverage

Tough choice for SkyWest pilots in my opinion. Definitely some good and bad mixed in here. Good luck. Too bad the SkyWest and ExpressJet pilots haven't forced one list or a merger. Until then management will continue to whipsaw the 2 groups. Pilots lose. Management wins.
