Best regional to work for
I'm new here but from what I see Skywest seems to be the best regional to work for when considering stability, pay, schedule, bases, upgrades, pilot treatment, etc.
Horizon seems to be running number 2... Am I close? |
SKW & Horizon are the correct answer if you like the Western US.
Mesa is not the worst, but offhand, I can't think of who is actually lower on the list than them :mad: |

Horizon upgrades
As a lucky Horizon escapee, I got the call for upgrade at QX right at 5 1/2 yrs. seniority. Not a whole lot under the 6 year mark. It could come down a little bit more depending on fleet plans, but I wouldn't hold my breath on that one. I think Horizon will only have a net increase of 4 maybe 5 aircraft after they take delivery of the 12 new mega-whackers. The plans are to retire 9 of the baby dash's sometime next year.

Don't know if its still this way
I was on a hotel van with a NetJets guy that left SkyWest. Said that the management suckered the pilots into an "above average" contract to keep ALPA out. Said that this wasn't a problem, until they were short on crews, and say your vacation came up. They would call you up and say "Hey, you're taking this trip and taking your vacation later." Is this still an issue at SkyWest? I mean, the breaking of contract issues because of a lack of enforcement? If so, as much as I can't stand ALPA, you may want to see what it would take to bring them in to help with contract enforcement.
