How long to hold Captain at SWA? 8-10 years?
I wouldn’t be surprised to see Vegas grow substantially over the next few years.
LAS is around 7.5 yrs. We are in class within 1-3 weeks of the award. No clue how long at UAL after the award you start getting paid CA pay…doesn’t matter much if you can hold it after a year though.
