I shouldn't have opined. I don't commute, and won't. This job wouldn't be worth the extra unpaid time, nor the headaches one expends getting to and from work start/end. Of course my calculus is only my own, for me and my family.

I also don't value non rev travel for me or my family. Again... not worth the time or "saved" money for my situation.

I'll leave the SXX banter to y'all. Sorry for the interruption.

Does it need to be said that pilots should get a higher priority? I thought it was a given and that they’re just working through the “IT issues”

I’m thinking an S-1. Goes ahead of S0 and those pesky “emergency” travelers.....


TSA didn’t report numbers today, maybe 2+ mil ?

Also interesting is where SKW priority is — on SKW metal they go at S3, their retirees at S3B; while on SKW metal DL goes at S3B1 with their retirees at S3CR.

Compare this to EDV/RPA — on their metal they go at S3, retirees at S3CR; DL on EDV/RPA metal is S3 and retirees S3B. Active employees for both are at S3 the order is based on seniority.

Why are active DL employees treated to worse status on a DL painted SKW airplane than on EDV/RPA? Why does a SKW retiree get onboard before an active DL employee?

Add to that Delta parents going behind EDV on mainline. EDV employees shot up 2 priority levels recently. Parents also can't ZED on KLM, making Europe travel nearly impossible for them.

Im guessing SKW peeps would gladly take Endeavors priority deal.

Doesn't Skywest own the majority of their aircraft?

It’s their metal, not ours....the math is pretty simple.
