We are retiring 15 CRj 200s between the november 2017 and june 2018. while we are retiring those, we are getting 33 crj900s and 700s in the same time frame.
All retention bonuses end on 12/31/2017 and new higher pay rates begin 1/1/2018.
Thanks;
With those new pay rates, it's hard *not* to apply, and a guaranteed interview at Delta as well. (I know, just an interview)
Are reserve captains typically used as captain only or do they do captain on captain?
Are captains with more than 1000 hours TPIC that don't get hired at Delta being hired at other majors?
The regional I'm at sends NO ONE to majors.. at least none I've heard of, and that concerns me; I don't want to be painting myself into. A corner and end up a lifer..
