"slow way down" is a super relative term. If you compare the upgrade times at Compass with other regionals of the same caliber, Compass has and will continue to offer way faster upgrades than elsewhere. It's difficult to tell where things are going to be 1-2 years from now, but I can tell you what I know today.

On the last Captain upgrade award and we are now into 2016, the last slot went to a guy that was hired 8 months ago. Compass has had in average a 6-12 month upgrade time since late 2013 hires.

What is keeping the trend going even though the flows are done as are the AA deliveries is that Compass is losing a ton of pilots every month, both from the CA and FO side because they are are being hired at majors or LCCs. The past 2 months, we've lost more pilots than pilot's we've been able to upgrade and the trend seems to be increasing.

Is upgrade time going to be what it was 1 year ago? No, you probably won't get upgrade class right after you finish your IOE line check but that was kind of scary anyway.

It'll definitely be below what you'll find elsewhere, that's for sure.

 

From my experience, a company can NOT charge you for company related materials unless it is ordered in the form of restitution from a court.

My opinion, go to your local state labor department and file a claim for the $600 they illegally deducted from your paycheck.

 

Anyone know if 100 multi time is still required for compass? I'm at about 60 multi with 1400tt

 

Nope, not required.

Can somebody give me the contact for parking reimbursement? Thanks.

If you pick up something from open time on an off day. Do you get the additional credit added to the check even if you are below min credit. (Like on reserve, buildup, CDO)

 

yes, just make sure it gets coded as an OTA open time add by CS. (there are some caveats, obviously if you have a buildup, and drop a 10 hr trip, and pick up 5 hrs, you'd get paid 70 for the month (guarantee minus now you're net -5)

 

Thank you. Is there a way to check to make you its coded right without contacting CS?
