Does anyone know the typical length of times for the higher paying regional airlines? I'm having a difficult time researching the answer online. Recommendations welcome. Thanks.
Bail at any time.
The only current contracts are for sign-on bonuses.
Even then, you would only owe them the sign-on bonus. Financially it may be worth it to pay them back.
Short answer: No contracts. Employee at will.
