Where would you be commuting from?

I mean, yeah, I guess living in Southern California could be neat, it's also expensive as hell. People do it, though.

Well by looking at the FO reserve grid today and for the rest of the month, i'd say that we are fat in LAX for the remainder of the month

How much do we get paid for the CBT's for 9 month? And in which paycheck do we get the pay?

Thanks!

Pretty soon I'm guessing there won't be a whole lot on either side.
Thanks grass landings, how much flying are the average line holders doing and what are the upgrade time looking like?

Any regrets on choosing compass vs all the others out there and why? Pro's and con's overall opinions please. I am leaning towards compass but I need some line holders input before I make my decision. Any and all input is appreciated.

No regrets here so far and I'm being honest. Great company.. The culture is good company morale majority of the company seems happy...Great airplane overall not bad routes just think we need more captains.. Fairly young pilot group and high attrition so everyone seems to be moving up fairly quickly.. This is my opinion and views others might have another view
