Something else to look foward to then!

I do not know the details to all this but during Q&A in training they explained it to us. I got lost about 5-10min into it but got the jist. Also why we have only really bidded for United west coast flying. But a total pull out of west coast from Skywest there will be a ton of overlapping routes with ASA, just don't see that happening. Maybe someone else can explain it better then how I understood it.

I hope they had a english grammer tutorial in training for you as well. Took me 3 reads just to try to get "the jist" of what you were saying. But, maybe someone else can explain it better than I understood it.

There are VPS overnights this month... I think most if not all are highspeeds but you do technically spend the night....

This is not confirmed but been hearing it from management types in the last few weeks.

Why do you feel so strongly that XJ is giving all of the CRJ200s back to Pinnacle? I'm not so sure about that. What specifically make you think we will get rid of them? Now that we are a part of DCI, who is famous for screwing their regionals and is completely unpredictable, no one has a clue what's going to happen.
Looks like the FO lines are crediting really low all across the board. Captain's credit is high. Mostly over 80.
