Default Netjets info

Hi, I work for a regional, and Im considering switching to Netjets
Whats the upgrade time in NJ?
How long until you get SLC base?

Does it worth the change?

Thanks!

"Does it worth the change?" Really???? Does you know how to read?????? Have you read any of the other Netjets threads on this forum?

10-15 year upgrade at minimum.

Current Upgrade Time : 15 years +
Salt Lake City is a crew base. In other words, immediately.
As to your last question: Only you can answer that. Depends on your age, your career goals, and your desired quality of life. At a glance, I would say no.

But I suspect you knew all of the above and are just trolling for a wild and crazy thread.

I know how to read, do you know how to write?
Thanks for the info!

Probably a better quality of life than most regionals, but if your goal is to get to a major airline, it won't help, and will actually probably hinder you.

For someone hired today, I'd estimate 15-20 years.

You can have any base on the list on your first day, and change as often as you want by giving 15 days' notice. Basing is one of the major perks of the job.

Do your research. Read all of the threads here about NJ. If you still want to apply after that...well, knock yourself out. You'll probably get what you deserve.

I would estimate upgrade less than 10 years, considering pilot age at NetJets and movement to airlines of current employees.

The lack of upgrades hopefully won't continue forever. Change tends to happen fast in this industry. But, perhaps I'm too optimistic.

Delta has a base in SLC. Just sayin'. If you went to a FAR 141 undergrad school and a GPA of 3.0 or higher you may be eligible for an interview (it seems this is an unwritten requirement for civilian only candidates).

Zero chance of a less than 10 year upgrade unless a drastic change occurs. Even if all the >65 guys were gone tomorrow, it wouldn't drive many upgrades. 10 year guys (hire of 8/7/07) are still in the bottom 10% of the company (#2249 of #2507).

The idea that somehow things will change and that person will be remotely close to an upgrade in the next 5 years is absolutely insane.

Your estimation is literally wrong. There are no upgrades going on right now and the only reason the most junior CA is a 2005 hire is because it was a Phenom FO to CA upgrade. Upgrades are longer than 10 years right now. And management isn’t upgrading anyone outside of the CBA agreed upon nmber.
