One reason to choose XJT?
Totally hilarious the UAL-Express exec running around L-XJT bases (2 visits to IAH now) trying to figure out why the CPP isn't keeping the RJ-slaves on the plantation...
The hilarious part is, I think they really thought it was a GREAT idea. How could it possibly not work? You get a 50% chance at a chance to get a job at UA in... when exactly? Years and years and years from now... maybe.
Failure pile in a sadness bowl.
Training is still a good and pleasant experience. There. 1 reason.

If they want to secure XJT staffing...
Announce a lottery for your seniority number at UA. Drawing will be held December 31, 2018. All pilots from new-hire to old age are eligible. Will go to United in order drawn. On second thought, I doubt even that would work.

Leadership is alarmed at the amount of pilots side-stepping to other regionals. Don't know why they are alarmed...this is their mess and it is FUBAR. Wouldn't be surprised if they announced some kind of retention package to slow the retention through the summer.

At the end of the day, it is being told to me, XJT is a dead-end and anyone remaining on the ship will end up drowning as it continues to take on water.
There is more than just a financial reason why pilots are escaping quickly.

Is anybody going from ExpressJet to United on the CPP? No one talks of any movement?
If XJT captains are going to United then XJT F/Os should be upgrading to captain. This should be a fairly smooth movement...I realize it's not a flow.
It should be helping XJT. They should be around longer.
Please educate me?
