I'm not sure it would even be worth it to be a Captain there. Year 2 pay is $64/hr. That would be about $53K per year. I'm fairly certain I could find a job that could keep me home and make close to 50K. I've talked to some of their Captains and they say they almost always get 11 days off and virtually all uncommutable trips. The last guy I talked to said he was in his own bed 3 nights last month. If you live in MSP, DTW, or MEM then it may be tempting, but commuting to that would really suck. If you go there and don't like it what are the ramifications on your Delta recall if you quit? Now if we had Delta's contract to work under, then it would be worth it. Not worth it with the Compass contract, retirement, and benefits.
