Skywest will be typical regional flying, crappy lines with low seniority which will get better over time. Less changes for sure and 12 days off per month, broken up with several commutes. 117 rest rules. Opportunities to exceed guarantee. Same airports mostly and big airport delays sometimes. Agree that ATL goes in and out. DL uses OO to fill in when Endeavor is short airplanes...I think they just got rid of the 200s.
So 1-2 week chunks off at home off or 2-3 days here and there and commute differences. Where you live and family considerations come into play, which is something we can't know. Age as well.
Very good info! Thank you!Originally Posted by JLTD
WU will be constant changes, sometimes 7 legs a day, cleaning the aircraft interior after each set of clients, loading & unloading their bags and 14 hour days. But...as mentioned you get a confirmed ticket to your plane and either 1-wk on 1-off or possibly 14/14. Salary. Airports all over, often away from large metro areas so no NY (etc) ATC delays for the most part.Skywest will be typical regional flying, crappy lines with low seniority which will get better over time.
