Maybe some kind of retention program is in the works?
I was a lifer on the fence. The only place I could see going was SWA. I think we have seen SkyWest peak in this environment. I took the plunge and was fortunate enough to be hired by SWA.

If (when) the economy goes south, I would rather be stuck at SkyWest than any other regional.

This won't last forever. I think SkyWest is gambling on that. They are very conservative and very smart. If the execs' gamble is wrong, they will get axed.
