I know it sounds picky considering I haven't even been offered a job yet, but I currently have another career path going and am only considering going back to flying if certain conditions exist. The most important.. QOL. I am furloughed Comair so I am familiar with the basics of regional flying, I just wondered about the "good stuff". What is the "good stuff" about xj?
Days off on reserve: 11 in a 30 day month, 12 in a 31 day month. Minimum of two days off between reserve days. All lineholders have a 12 day off minimum. As far as regionals go, XJT has some of the best work rules and vacation.
Flight benefits will be changing, so it's pointless to discuss them at this point. I expect they will be going downhill from what we currently have. They were never as good as DL benefits.
