Wonder how long until that goes down the drain?

I wonder if SurfAir will have an LAS domicile in the future?

Really? I was under the impression that they had hired captains only for the launch with co-pilots coming later. Also fwiw, saw an ad yesterday on one of the hiring sites that they were looking for dispatchers so it does sound like they are grinding along. Sloooooooooowly.....

Sounds awesome on paper. I wonder how much that will change.

According to one of the other forums, they've taken delivery of two aircraft.

Also, it should be noted that the pilot jobs are not just flying the airplane. You're also going to be the passengers' customer service agent/concierge. So yeah, there should be more pay for that!
