I see several posts from a year ago saying the contract is coming soon. I talk to people who tell me that GJ union is merely asking for a middle range contract of what is already out there. Middle of pay rates and a few other things but none of the other things that Skywest and the others already have. Shouldn't they be going for a top pay contract so they are not back at the bottom again in a few months?

300% open time pay and they can't get people to fly or to go there, something is not being said. Gojet's contract with United is coming up soon. United does not want the CRJs and I don't think will renew. Does GJ have a plan? Will the CRJs be moved out of Chicago and Denver to Raleigh and New York? I'm hearing that is what is being looked at. Any info on any of this?

I know a lot of people that went there and almost all have left. They all recommend against going there. Does GJ have a future? Seems like 300% pay is better then the contract they are asking for. If they are flying you 90 hours a month you cannot pickup much of the 300% pay. They limit you to 97 hours a month so that would be 7 hours at triple time of 24 an hour. 7 times 24 times 3 is how much extra a month? 209 a month I think. 2400 a year. That is not much but 300% does sound like a lot. Who is giving 22k plus the overtime?
