Someone can correct me if I am wrong, but I don't believe so. You can have a domestic partner, but there are all kinds of hoops to jump through. You will have S3C priority on all metal except your own, which you will have S3 but DL mainline can still bump you as it goes by seniority. Parents also pay what is called a yield fare, so they don't travel free.

The only ones I know of that have decent DL benefits is SKW. They can have a enrolled friend, buddy passes, S2 travel, and they bump DL mainline on their own metal. Parents also fly for free.

We lost a few instructors to PSA. Comair guys that were offered positions back in CVG. I also hear that one of the two STL sims is about to go down for a "heavy" check. Who knows.

LOL. The NSP does not require "heavy checks" on FFS devices. Nice try however.

I thought it sounded a little strange.

it doesn't matter what pilot group is now working there, Gojet is still one of the original if not the first airline to start the race to the bottom everyone is currently experiencing

So whipsaw began in 2005? I learn something new everyday.

like i said, i'm not a regional airline historian. But I don't know of another time in recent history where another regional airline or the regional industry was undercut as badly as the Gojet situation. UNTIL the recent PSA sellout of the entire industry. Why do you think most of the heat and attention is no longer focused on gojet? Because PSA just took their place as the red headed step child

What would you call the formation of compass? The flow that the 2010 and prior pilots have wasn't free.

i don't know much about how compass was created, but to my knowledge they weren't created out of spite to undercut one pilot group. They seem to have had a decent contract, then just got a better one, and I don't think most people would have ever considered them a bottom feeder

Compass was created to prevent NW guys from being furloughed. There was a flow down/up agreement until they were sold. Bringing up Compass in a discussion on GoJet is as ridiculous as it gets.

Are you sure about that?

You don't know much about anything.
