Until they fill up MKE with those willing (could take a long while), it would be more than a safe-bet to plan on MKE for atleast a little while...Heck, you'll be taking my place ;-)

One plus: Cookies...warm, fresh cookies!

bring a friend with you so they can take my MKE place too. :D

Midwest has this gimmick where they serve hot, fresh baked cookies on every flight. When SKW signed with them, they had to retrofit the CRJ's with little ovens and train the FA's how to bake cookies! :)

Actually that could be very dangerous...replace my per-leg pretzel snack with tollhouse cookies. I could weigh 240 in no time :(

I'll take your spot in MKE. I have my transition bid in and I'm just waiting to get back to class! 2 and a half months!

Avi8er1008,

Were you in the 9-4-2006 EMB class? I am waiting to go to MKE too. I want ORD first so I can get 700 trained so I can trip trade with open time.

Some one will be taking my place in MKE in a few months. Been awarded SLC OCT 1st and I can't wait.

Skywest has standing bids out for October already? Wow, how far in advance do they award bases usually?

Yeah I thought it was pretty far out to. Everyone who got awarded the same month as me is not going until OCT.

MKE is definately tempting as I'd bid #9 there. Good chance on a MCI base as well.

I've been at Skywest for a year now, I live in SLC and fly the 120. I can't go over to the jet in SLC cause there "over staffed" there now!!! I'm pretty mad. They award new hire bases 3 months out and screw us. ( Not your fault) I've got 700+ under me and I'm stuck. If your new and want SLC it's going to take a while. There's 30ish people that want to go over and fly the jet in SLC and there are almost 40 that want to transfer to SLC. Rumor is when they opened ATL, they took some planes and took the lines with them. I'm done venting. I just want 35.00 an hour and not 27.00.
