Yea it will drop eventually, however no other company in the industry is referred to upgrades with a level of hopes and dreams added in. Every airline is going to be hiring pilots like mad, but nobody is saying "yea upgrades will drop to 2 years at United in like 3 years so just keep crossing fingers"
If upgrades are 13 years right now, then it takes 13 years to upgrade. There is really nothing to indicate with any solid amount of certainty that upgrades will significantly drop in the future.

I am not sure why, but it seems like NJA is surrounded by this idea of selling the future to applicants and even current employees as "it will get better soon" and maybe they will but the last time the company expanded enough to make upgrades less than 2 years, it led to a furlough.

Go to XOjet while you’re waiting for call from major. Don’t make fractional/135 a career path. It’s unstable, very hard work, pay trails majors, and none of this will change in the future. You’ll enjoy the flying and the ppl at XO while you’re there, but the work does wear you down.

Love hearing pilots of any type refer to the career as being “hard”. Clearly they’ve never worked an actual “hard” job in their lives. Hell, staying at home with kids is 10x harder than being a pilot of any sort. Stop the whining!

FlexJet
The fuel bonus is now $4000 and we also have another bonus that is 10% of your base. Around 96% of the pilots get the fuel bonus.
We also provide free long and short term disability, free vision and free loss of license insurance. My healthcare is around $60 a month and $10 for dental.
I currently have 15 days off in November.

The actual *flying* part is the "easy" part. Heck, that's when we catch a breather. The hor$e $hit surrounding the flying and multiple leg days is yes...exhausting! You've got to do it to understand. Too many "on the road" negatives to list that really add up after 8 days.
