Rick, you are guaranteed the 75 after IOE is done. From sim checkride through IOE is only a guarantee of 70 if I'm not mistaken.

What? You don't wanna stick around and watch our contract get tossed out and live under the awesome rules the company is proposing?

Was wondering if someone on the inside could tell me if E190/BOS still looks like the fastest route to a line? Also with the openings available from the last system bid, do you expect that to continue to be the case heading into the 1st half of 2013?

Last question, been hearing a rumor about a FLL/E190 base being added because there are too many E190 overnights in FLL right now. Anyone know this to be fairly reliable information or just pure rumor?

Thanks!!

I would love to see a FLL 190 base as I have many overnights there. I haven't heard anything or rumors about it though. I would figure on a base in SJU before FLL ever does.

All you waiting to get to JB.....

Get ready for a major reaming on healthcare. It'll make some of you wish you would have never left your regional.

Family of 4 = $408/mo., $9600 out of pocket max.

Yeah, they really "care" about us.

Industry average, my arse.

Net result is that I have NO regrets leaving my regional airline for JB, and would do it again.

Health care is a national disaster decades in the making. We are just not insulated from its effects without a union. Until this ridiculous health care system collapses under it's own weight, the whole country is screwed and uncompetitive.

Private health insurance as a primary means of FINANCING the nations health care system is a JOKE.
