He said it...he can defend himself. It's not the first time he has said either.

Did you not understand my question? I'll ask again. How long have you been a "pilot" for Envoy?

You must be under the impression I'm applying to work at Skywest and think I owe you answers. Next time let your buddy fight his own battles.

Reading comprehension? When did I say my benefits were better than mainline? You're are putting words in my mouth to try and prove your point.

PS. "Defending myself" with you is just going to be a giant circle-jerk.

This has nothing to do with the other poster or skywest whatsoever. How long have you been a pilot for Envoy? It's a simple question! Can you not answer it? Are you even a pilot there or do you work in a cubicle over there in Irving?

LOL. As if I need anyone to stick up for me. Especially when you call me names. I must admit, my feelings are hurt.

I don't think the dude is a pilot at all but gets paid by Pedro to post on here. Maybe even Pedro's personal intern?!

Your words, not mine. If you would step out from inside your head for 2 seconds you would realize what everyone is trying to tell you:

There is no such thing as "Envoy benefits"' or PSA benefits, or Piedmont...our travel benefits are AMERICAN AIRLINES benefits. Period.

Your contention is that your Skywest benefits are better because you have the option of 3 airlines..albeit low priority. And that is perfectly fine.

Except by your own argument, you also have better benefits than AA, Delta, and United pilots. Mainline pilots only have benefits on their own airline...one airline. But it's high priority. So you need to think about it that way. You have tried to make this argument before, and I don't get why it's such an issue with you. If you as a Skywest pilot can non rev and get to where you need to go...who cares?

But yeah, I can see how those benefits would suck if you work for a non-AA wholly owned like Skywest. You guys have boarding priority lower than any AA employee...including gate agents and janitors. That is a long standby list to climb up if the loads are full. Envoy/PSA/Piedmont have equal boarding priority along with AA pilots so it's easier for us.
