I'd take that deal every month... I'd be more than happy to downgrade to bid #2 FO in the company if I could keep my captain pay. 19 days off to pick up 200% (at captain pay) would be well worth it... Heck I'd be willing to donate 90% of my flight time logging (gotta stay current for a major at least).

As I've been saying, if you want (are willing to accept) New York, this isn't that bad of an option... if you want DTW or MSP as a captain (ATL is still being felt out as it's currently only a new 200 base)... You will likely get there faster by being hired at another regional then, if needed, an LCC or mainline airline than waiting for a captain seat here in those bases.

As an over 55+ guy, previous 121 PIC time, 9E is appealing to me mainly because of the new base which is driving distance and the fairly quick upgrade. Flow at AA is not really a consideration for me, although PSA base is also a drive away. So it's going to be a toss up between the two, followed by RAH. OTS hire at a legacy or LCC such as WN or F9 would be even better.

Yea I feel the same way. Stop making it easier for top guys to never ever leave. I get things happen in life but no one NO one should be at a regional more then 10 years.

The argument about DTW and MSP stagnation is moot as there really isn't an alternative right now. Skywest at DTW being the exception - for now.
MSP flying has shrunk from mainline through all the regionals. Fact of life.
Makes the argument of living in base vs. commuter less than clear cut. At least commuting gives you some flexibility in these situations.
...or people move to the base with movement. Like what happens at any other job...
