It's not that I don't think I'll enjoy flying the line in a regional because I will, but it is not the ultimate goal. I'd just like to know my options.

Can anyone tell me what sort of a contractual commitment you incur when you upgrade to CA at Compass and how that might compare with Envoy, Mesa, or Skywest?
