So with 5 CA per a/c that means all the CA's are on the property right now... is that right?

I would say that anyone that is already on property will be a CA w/ in the next 12 months but outside of that I don't know. With the mngmt pilots, I would guess that anyone with a 190 or less # will likely be a CA by January 1 2009. That is my guess and comes with a disclaimer so take it for what its worth.

Don't forget that EVERY airline has some amount of attrition and CMP is no different. If the majors pick up hiring I would guess that it will also create extra CA slots at CMP. There are quite a few CA's that still have active apps out right now.

Does anyone have a route map for Compass? How many destinations will they serve when all the a/c are up and running? What about pay/contract/work rules ect? I'm happy where I am now but the commute is killing me and a DTW base would be perfect. What does the future look like? It would have to be a pretty sweet deal for me to leave where I am now, work rules and pay are excellent. Also, I can't upgrade for 2 years because of my age, and I have a little over a year senority now. Just wondering if Compass would be worth the lateral move, I have thought about it more and more lately.

Its all a gamble, but you may want to keep that in mind.

MEM bid will not be out till the end of the month. (Best guess in the long run it will be the most junior)

As for destinations...changes all the time.

Is it a good place to go to? Ask me in 12 months. If I am still employed I will let you know. (the NWA/DELTA thing could put all Compass pilots on the street. Depends if NWA needs to push pilots back to us)
