Does anyone have a link to a current Mesa route-map? What cities do they fly to in Mexico and Canada? Does Mesa do any caribbean ops?

Here are the two things I legitimately think skywest has over mesa that I am envious of. 1) much hotter flight attendants and 2) their CEO doesn't have a deal with Parker to not hire Mesa pilots for fear of poaching cheap labor. 2 May be a tinfoil hat theory but I see some potential validity to it. 1) is fact from my anecdotal evidence.

The guys that are fortunate enough to be in that position are guys that were in the military, did internships, and are simply well connected.
