Yeah, they're treating Expressjet pilots just great. which is why 40% of them have left for compass!
What would have happened to Express Jet had SkyWest not bought them? Does anyone else remember that they were Continental Express, they became an independent airline then had financial troubles. That's how I remember it but maybe I missed the full version. So SkyWest buying Express Jet kept pilots employed.
Right now they also have the United CPP. Sounds like terrible treatment. Oh and that awful conflict bidding they have, who would want to get paid for trips they don't have to fly that touch vacation.
