1) SKYW second year FO pay is 3 dollars an hour more than mine. Yet its for a 70 passenger jet. 40% more seats, 8% more pay.
2) Does SKYW Paid 100% for deadheads?
3) Do you have lot's of opportunity to trade trips, drop trips, bad day-worse day trades, open time swapping, and pick-up or drop?
4) 100% pay protection on cancellations, management pick-ups, etc.
5) Does SKYW have a Retirement Plan (A or B) and 401K.
6) Does SKYW employees receive annual profit sharing.
Don't know where SKYW stands on these items, but primarily I wanted to point out that there's more to it than what the pay table shows.
SKYW is the richest single regional in the country. I believe about 700 million in Cash and no union! If you guys don't have an industry leading contract, you have to ask...why not?

3. tons of trips to swap get rid of. All open time this month is at 150%
4. Yes.
5. Yes.
6. Yes. And on time rewards.
