No they have not. We are currently staffed properly for the amount of flying we have.

It's true that they are for MAY for certain domiciles, not sure about June yet.

I know they have for FA's but I haven't seen any request for pilots.

DEN, ORD and SLC pilots were offered time off with OR without pay for the month of May.
Not a big deal, they have a little extra staffing and are allowing people to take time off if they want it

That's a pretty big assumption to say that Skywest will never be in a situation to have to offer LOAs.

I'm going to make an even bigger assumption and say that Jet Jock's favorite flavor of Kool-Aid is Watermelon.

Skywest will never lose money, ever..they're the most stable airline ever made, ever..they will never furlough, ever.... management will never screw them, ever.
