There are regionals out there that are real, and operate with some class, Mesa is certainly not one of them. Sometimes its worth waiting our for a quality job than taking the bottom feeder route and settling for Mesa and 8 days off a month. Thats my advice. I did time at Mesa and it robbed me.

I got that email, too - not sure how they got my address, but I replied asking if they truly thought cancelling all vacations was an "excellent work/life balance."

Haven't heard back yet, though....

I believe they got our email addresses from airlineapps.com. When you log into your account, does it ask you if you want to receive 'general email notices from Airline Apps, Inc. and select airlines'?

Yeah but you didnt answer my question...how can you tell me that being homeless with my family walking the streets but I am at a top regional making 1800 a month is better than mesa making 5000 a month?

Quality of life for my family is pretty horrible with no home....my quality of life may be horrible at mesa but at least my families quality of life will be great.

Will/do you experience your 'families great quality of life' more than 8 days a month?

What about the quality of life that Aloha familes are experiencing right now, seeing how JO and Mesa illegally put them out of business.

No sense in defending Mesa. If you think defending Mesa is the right thing to do, I feel sorry for you.
