Does anybody know when the annual health benefits enrollment window usually opens?

I emailed the company this week and asked. They said we would be sending out the benefits package info to us in mid December and that they hadn't finalized the numbers quite yet...they had no details. However, I was told of a "nominal increase in premiums".

Wow, mid December?! Isn't it a little bit too late to make elections that kick in on January 1st? Has it always been so late in the past?

Really depends on the credit for the trip...in months past including November there have been some 35+ hour credit 5 days I was bidding inside the 25% of line holders and bidding those trips as specific pairings, no bueno though...

What are the health insurance premiums for the bare bones plan per month? Is MSP availalble out of training?

There is only one plan.

There are two. The Pilot Plan and the Core Plan

For 2014, the Pilot Plan is 132 a month for single. Core Plan is actually more expensive a month and has a higher deductible.

We'll see what the cost is for 2015 in a few weeks.

You're right, I forgot the company threw that in during open enrollment.

Single is about $135/mo, +spouse $330/mo, +spouse&kid(s) $500. 2014 rates. If you got a family, premiums will eat up 25% of that first year pay :S

Hey guys... ExpressJet 2 year FO looking to get back to LAX so I'm considering applying to Compass.
I COULD spend a great part of my day off scrolling 500 pages of this thread, but figure I'll just ask my own questions and hope someone would be kind enough to offer me the most current information without chastising me and telling me to research the thread. LOL
1) How sr/jr is LAX? Could I expect it relatively easily after training?
2) You need to provide your own housing for training? Are there cheap places someone could recommend?
3) Do you have pay protection in your contract? (ie: block or better / cx pay?)
4) Is there a line improvement window or trip trading after the monthly schedules are awarded by PBS?
5) 11 days off is the contractual minimum. How common is that awarded by PBS? Could one expect to have more days off? How much tenure do you need to have before expecting more days off (I think I read someone posted they get 17 days off with productive 5-day trips)
6) Has the company in the past offered any signing bonuses?

I think think that is all I have for now. I appreciate anyone taking the time to humor with a reply.
