ERJs slow/stop leaving xjt starting in october, and other airlines can't staff their new flying (see Mesa and RAH). DO THE MATH kewosabe. We are better staffed than any other airline, we have the best performance than any other airline, we have more CCF, D0, and STAR flights than any other airline and we operate more flights than any other airline. You telling people to stay away and go to carrier with worse contracts and lower pay is only hurting your case to move up. To the OP: send an email to expressjet recruiting. Forums like these are only a vat of complaints and wobbly truth at best. Ill be happy to talk with you if you want to PM me.

Since you seem to be pretty knowledgeable about ExpressJet I was just wondering how much flight time people average while on reserve?

I'm military and possible getting out in a year with around 2000 hours. I live in Atlanta, so I was hoping to go into ExpressJet, build up some more flight time and get into a major airline in a year or two. I can live there very cheap which will help with the regionals.

Also does living in Atlanta help with ExpressJet?

Thanks
