If you want to see something really fun check out the open time at places like Skywest, Air Whiskey, or Republic. Over there a 20 hour four day is a crap trip, and 24-25 hour four days are a dime a dozen.
It's no wonder my friend who is a bypassing First Officer (because they don't need to force upgrades) at Skywest is making easily more than me as a reserve Captain at PSA.

Have you looked at the retirement numbers lately...
No, but the money is. I come to work to make money. Liking my job is just a side benefit. A benefit that Management has manipulated in their favor for far too long. If people would put their desire to be properly compensated above their desire "to fly" it would be a totally different landscape out there. Wish in one hand, **** in the other I reckon... Happy New Year.

Negative Ghostrider, you have missed the point. The point is to know what you actually get here at PSA vs our competitors.

Minus NYC that's true pretty much anywhere and for various reasons for some people NYC might be a better option than a podunk outstation with a line or reserve that starts at 0430.
Give someone a gold brick they'll ***** about how heavy it is...

Not to stir the pot at all but between new hire bonuses and premium pay I hit 90,000+ this year at ZW as an FO. 100,000+ if you include per diem. Granted, I was averaging 7 days off a month and 125 hours of credit so QOL was non existent, but the money is there if that’s what you’re after.
