Any reason why management favors the EJet over the CRJ?

I don't think it has anything to do with the actual airplane. Just a better paying contract with a lengthy extension.

Hi Mesa guys,

I'm considering interviewing with Mesa. I'm sure they will offer me a job. The other three regionals I interviewed with offered me the job before they even sat down (one of them literally) to interview me. The question is:
What are the chances of getting an IAD base out of training? I think QOL is all about living where you base and.....I'm stuck in D.C. because of my wife.
Thanks in advance.

Lucky you - IAD is the most junior. Holding it is pretty much guaranteed.

Dogs with fleas. Pick the one with the least amount of fleas.

Hence choosing by hub location. Working for the best regional is pretty crappy if the commute sucks. Forget that. Rather be mowing the grass on reserve than at some stupid crash-pad with ....Who knows.

That's like asking do you want your arm cut off, your leg cut off or an eye poked out? Seems like you're screwed with either. Lmao
Seriously, pick the one where you can live in base or have a short easy commute, second pick the one where there is actual growth .Beyond that it's all a crapshoot. Things are changing every day in this regional world and my guess is there are a couple airlines that won't be here in a year or two or if they are still around they will only be a shell of what they are now

Aren't captains seat locked? Is this going to change?
