Somebody is salty that they couldn't upgrade. And some of these "2 year" upgrades at other places are awards with no class date or hope of actually flying in the left seat. We aren't trying to con everyone as bad as the other regionals seem to be.
Envoy(awarding captains at 2yrs doh but wait until 5 years to get a class)
CommutAir(cancelling upgrades and now a soon to be a transitioning fleet)
Mesa (60k compensation which includes benifits and hotels haha )
Air whiskey (bloated 3year compensation package with advertised *18 month* upgrades while they sit currently above 5yrs)
Endeavor (not sure how long that upgrade time will stay low with the amount they have hired in the last 3 years *ALOT*)
PSA and Piedmont (how's that 20yr flow working out with ~1 pilot going a month)
There's ALOT of BS here but I at least I felt like there was more honesty coming from Xjt or maybe it's just me and this Kool aid tastes real good.
