We are above that already and the flows are all gone (except the last 10 or so). The recruiters don't seem to be slowing down at all. I'm wondering if they expect above average attrition or what's the reason behind it?

Heard in the schoolhouse that attrition has been 10 - 12 a month and hiring 10 a week thru Feb. FWIW.

All it allows is for carriage to foreign countries mainly so that there isn't an issue in the future if one of our partners asks us to go somewhere else. IT was filed for G7 and TransState as well

They've already added another destination in Mexico. I heard that another might be added but probably just one more. I wouldn't expect anything fabulous like CUN, SJD or PVR for obvious reasons.

Current Compass peeps..since our ALPA forum almost gets no traffic, I'm posting this here as well.

Looking for a SEA based pilot looking to share a crash pad room with me. Found someone close to the airport (walkable) who will let 2 of us share a room for $225 each.

Shoot me a PM if interested.

Well boys and girls, looks like we lost this bid to Skywest.

I belive Skywest bought them themselves. I don't think Compass ever had a shot.

There's a swap/shuffle going on there though. Seems some CRJs are going to ASA and the E-jets are replacing them at SKW. So I'm not sure compass was considered. We sure are still hiring for something...
