My policy (and most CA's I think) is that the commuter has priority because the trainee has options as to when/where to do his flights. Apply common sense and choose less-than-full flights. I will leave you at the outstation and take the commuter.
It does not say anything in the FOM about a SkyWest trainee having priority over a SkyWest commuter.
