The travel benifits are very similiar to the ones I use to have on USAir though...with the exception to The Hub online and the buddy passes.

I won't believe them till I have them.
I do miss the Hub. Made nonrev travel so easy.

Once we have nwa radar access it's just as nice as "the hub".

How does the non-rev work for your spouse at Compass? Can your spouse travel on just Compass and NWA or on other NWA code-shares as well?

Spouse benefits are identical to employee. NWA + all airlink carriers for free (pay in 1st class only), or buy ZED passes for other carriers.

Too late! There's already someone who left for there.

So does your "senior" CAL relative think all Compass pilots are scabs for some reason, or does he know of a few specific individuals that are?

Here's some more food for thought.....In my experience it seems the more senior a pilot is at a legacy carrier the more out of touch they are with everything that is happening in the rest of the industry, especially the regionals not affiliated with their carrier.

Dont freak out, its just what I heard around Christmas dinner........ and dont quote senior, bc he is actuallyVERY senior............ he doesnt think they are all scabs he just said word around CAL is that it is a scab airline that hires scabs.... CAL people are very sensitive about the whole scab thing......

Isn't that kind of like the pot calling the kettle black?

CAL has/had a considerable amount of them, unless I have been wrongly informed. Notice the "had" as I don't know how many remain at the airline.
