I have heard this advice before, start training with another airline then when you have the class date for the airline you actually want, quit. Wonder how it looks on a resume tho

It's not ideal but as long as it's not a pattern it should not pose a problem. You should be able to articulate a reasonable explanation as to your decision to do so (commuting, family etc). Once you get on with your "choice" airline stay there, upgrade and move on in a normal career progression trajectory. Next stop should be a non-lateral move. The other option is to wait it out if you are able. Remember once you start training, you might be obligated financially if you receive any signing bonuses and if you have any hiccups in training it may affect your ability to get on elsewhere (PRIA reportable events).

Like any airline, it could be very good to get in now before the negotiations end.... or not.
Are you for real? The pilots should be emb

The current Delta top earner is over $600K. Very rare, and special case however.

The best part is that SkyWest isn't even unionized anyway. It's not like there is some force field preventing the company from giving more money if they are "embarrassed" by current pay. Even if they were unionized, do you think a union out there would say no to a free pay increase if there were no strings attached?

Nonbinding pilot "agreement" to changes to policy is an amazing scam they have going.

I know of one who made $750k in 2016. Had less than 8 days off a month. More power to him, though.

That's a lot of alimony.

First it's your time for the money...then it's your money for more time.
