A lot of these internet warriors are very bitter. I dont know what company they work for, that they seem to regularly deny jumpseats. I am glad i dont i have to fly with them. Bitter, disgruntled, ****ed off pilots is the last person that should be up front let alone left seat making these very thought out jump seat decisions.... Grow up

Neither choice is wrong it just depends on how much of a QOL you are willing to give up and various other factors including age, family support and if your SO makes a paycheck. I live in an outstation and choose not to work for an airline that has bases in an outstation because I believe outstation basing will eventually be a thing of the past. There is no magic 8 ball and there are im sure, long term FO's at great airlines who would have, given the chance jumped ship to one of the worse contract airlines for an upgrade years ago. Its the same story repeated here at the regionals and there is no end in sight. I have the opinion that there is no reward without risk and if you are young you should take roll the dice, indecision is not your friend either. Today the ball is in the pilots court, good luck on the decision. Also I know my grammar sucks.

PSA vs. Mesa
What about PSA vs Mesa if those are your choices?
(assuming you can live anywhere and these are your only options) |

A good contract? Really? The growth is true, for now, but seriously? You're going to call their undercutting, bottom of the barrel, concessionary contract in exchange for assets the company needs to buy anyways good?

While it's great what you get, what is important is that how many pilots in your company get that??? What will be quality of life for a new hire?? Those are important questions.... |
new hires can get 18 off a month after 4 months from ioe. sounds like nice qol.

NEITHER! If you have any self respect for yourself or the industry you would stay as far away from these places as possible. I have proudly denied 4 PSA clowns from my jump-seat. Also, majors stay away from hiring psa degenerates.
