Compass or ExpressJet - thoughts?
Looking at joining the 121 regional world and these two come recommended. Not really concerned about being hired and typed with the R-ATP, since I already hold an ATP, earned it the old school way with 1,500 hours. In addition to all the normal questions, I am basically looking to see how long reserve will last at either airline and which base is the junior base for that airline.
I'll be commuting out of FLL or PBI. An ATL base for XJ would make for an easy commute.
Thanks for your time.

From what I have been through since I was hired just over a year ago, let me be the first to say, stay far far away from ExpressJet, This place hands down has got to the worst run airline or business I have been associated with, and I am not the only one that feels this way! Hope this helps.

Agreed. Given the option between the two, I'd pick Compass every time with the theoretical large-scale movement ahead. That, and they seem to be the only regional that has a semi-functional relationship with Delta at the moment. Comair and Pinnacle guys can tell you how bad it sucks when Delta has it in for a regional.
