With Skywest moving out of SSS, they'll be plenty of classroom space there. I don't think line pilots will ever see the inside of the new building, but honestly who cares? I'm happy to see the purchase of a new headquarters building; to me that indicates that there isn't a sell-off of the company planned within the next couple years. I'm not one of the pilots giddy about being bought up by a legacy (or JetBlue). We're well into mediated negotiations for a new CBA, and I would like to see that process remain uninterrupted.

I am not familiar with airlines and contract process... Best guess when u think u will get a new one and do u think it will significantly affect first year pay? Trying to decide if I can take such drastic pay cut...? Thank again!

The seniority you lose while waiting for a new contract will be worse than the current pay cut. Our pay flat-out stinks, but a new contract is coming. When? Your guess is as good as mine.

I flew with and Interviewer not long ago and he said they are cold calling off resumes and apps for interviews. Most of the guys are FO's from regionals . Says about 1/2 the people show up for interview- i.e. 20 invited to interview and 10-12 show up that day. I know when Allegiant got their new contract that helped their pool of applicants . There's no doubt a new contract would help with recruiting and retention.
