Just make sure to leave your union lanyards/pins at the door.

Careful with that United hope, they need someone to drive your planes to the last day and lies sown with hope cost nothing.

Ya. They will throw out the UA aircraft carrot... but XJT seems the front runner for those, as there currently fleet will only be 25. You need 50’ish count to make it a feasible fleet...

They said they hoped to have the agreement finalized within the next few weeks and an announcement forthcoming.

They will have to hold to that timeline if they want people to stick around. I, for one, am not going to sit around waiting on promises of promises. Rob put that timeline out there, and he better not walk it back if he wants people to believe him.

Not terribly surprising. Been rumored for a while. I spent 6 years at Compass. Hoping you guys and gals get outta there ASAP. Be nice if Delta would hire more of you because of this.

Best of luck.

As a SkyWester I really feel for you all. I have friends that are current and former Compass and almost went there instead of SkyWest. We are all subcontractors and this type of thing can happen to any of us- a lot changes in a few years in the regional industry.

Regarding the lanyards- I am seeing them more often, even on pilots who are instructors (on line flights, not in the training center). One can hope.
