EOS Airlines
I just visited the APC main site and saw this new airline, EOS. Five-year CA pay on a B757 is $122. Where do I sign up!!! It sounds like a corporate-type operation with only 48 seats and they pay $122/hr? What a great deal! I know where my resume is going...
Sad thing is, there are ... offs out there flying for this outfit, just like skybus, gojet, etc. Good luck raising any bar with people out there flying for these rates. I bet these guys left Allegiant and are stoked to be flying a B757 now!

I don't know if I'd call it a "corporate-type" operation. It's pretty much like maxjet except all First class instead of business service. One of my friends who lives at my crashpad used to be a flight attendant for Eos. From the sounds of it, they provide an excellent product. It's good to see that they're expanding and seem to be doing well.
It's interesting that they're a CASS participant. Considering they only fly JFK to Stanstead..soon Paris too..I wonder how jumpseating on them works.

i'm sure that's what they've been told...what is interesting is the starting FO pay, while right now, you probably wouldn't be stuck in the right seat for too long, they'd just have to raise the bar on the rest of their pay, particularlly the high captain pay to make things look presentable...but heck, they're giving double what continental is giving a 75-FO.

Hahaha. I love it. Those Skybus guys don't have a clue. In 5 years, Skybus will either be gone, or their pay will still be $65k for A319 captain. But they say they are willing to work for $65k because...it should go up anyday now...lol!

Here's how it works: Their pilots can sit in YOUR cockpit jumpseat, but YOU cannot sit in THEIRS, because they only fly (1) int'l route. CASS was purchased merely for their own pilots, without the afterthought of reciprocity.
