Skywest will give you credit for time at your past airline and FO pay at Skywest is almost the same as captain pay at Gojet when you take into account the bonus, overtime and work rules.

My understanding is Gojet's sounds like the same but is not. If you have 3 years at another airline, at skywest you start on 4th year pay, then go to 5, 6 etc. At Gojet you start at 4th also, but then you stay at 4th until your 5th year at Gojet.

Skywest has something like 16 bases and is adding more. They treat their people right. Don't forget Republic and Endeavor.
Another newbie can see the future.... LOL

Maybe he has inside knowledge?

On a side note, if the place was THAT bad, everyone would be on here *****ing. But that doesn't seem to be the case. Seems like there isn't a lot of complaining at all by the masses.

GoJet is losing at least 5 UAX CRJ700’s. That is pretty well known. Mesa may lose the other 20 or it may be GoJet. But, someone is losing UAX flying.

Nothing is for sure. United could get scope relief in their next pilot contract, take some of the regional flying back to mainline, order more small narrow bodies, or else some or all of those 175s could be deferred to a later date. Those are just a few things that COULD happen. There seems to be a lot of know it alls on this forum who think they can predict the future.

Lots of things could happen. But here are facts:

25 175SC’s have been ordered to replace 45 of the 700’s by United. Deliveries start in April 2019 and go through the end of 2019. Small narrow bodies haven’t been ordered by United.

You are banking on relief from United’s pilot union or United deferring the 175SC’s (a plane they love) or some other miracle to avoid loss of aircraft.

UA’s Union is smart enough to not give on scope. They know there’s thousands just waiting to fly those shiny new jets on their routes for half the pay.

The regional model is a scam, actually. It’s like a pyramid scheme, and people keep buying into it.

45? I thought it was 25?

25 of the 45 CRJ700’s. There are only 45 CRJ700’s that are not on long term lease by United. GoJet has 25 and Mesa has 20.

Pyramid scheme or not, it is one of the biggest tickets to the majors...

We seem to be seeing different things. Looks to me like about half the threads are about how bad it is at GJ. What other airline has such a ratio? What other airline had a thread about the company having to pay hundreds of thousands for firing a guy on military. How about the thread for their firing a guy on FMLA leave?

I see a lot of complaining by the masses.
