Don't plan on any flying being permanent. We are used as a filler between the 50 seat market and 100+ seat market.

SFO layovers will probably be here for the foreseeable future. If you can land SFO layovers, great, but don't rely on it for your decision on picking an airline.

Newbie question.
If Delta does more of the shuttle flights in the winter, what does Compass do with the plane and crew? I ask because certain # of planes/crew are assigned right now.

Fly a different city pair as Delta sees fit.

No, Delta is flying a 717 on half of them come summer. If it is successful, I imagine they do them all eventually.

Are their any LAX-SAN trips? If so, are any of them overnights? Thanks.

A couple people who recently interviewed this month said upgrade times are under a year? That seems a little far fetched?

I can not help with upgrade time guesstimate but most all are going to LAX.

Seeing as the last upgrade class went to a January 2014 hire, the under a 1 year upgrade isn't very far fetched at all.
