Thanks squawk 762. Almost 2 months of training delays!

In all fairness though, that is about the worst case, most of the guys I talk to on the CRJ side are averaging about half that.

4am reserve in IAD, that just sent shivers through me.

During all of these delays between training phases, does Mesa allow you to go home or do they force you to stay in PHX?

You can go pretty much wherever, just make sure you show up when training is scheduled. They ask you to let them know if you won’t be in your hotel for more than a day or two, so they can check you out.

Okay, one other question -- do they positive space you to and from home in the event you are not scheduled for training for some reasonable period of time (4 days is common elsewhere), or would I have to non-rev there and back if I elected to leave due to the delay?

Nonrev. In the back. You won’t have a crew badge yet.

I'm not referring to jumpseating, which will of course require a badge and being in CASS, but the practice of using company business travel tickets with a more or less guaranteed seat in the back to get to and from training events.

Of course your comment has me wondering...how long does it take Mesa to provide a badge? Other airlines typically get it to you in about 30 days or near the end of systems training.
