Try to pick one you won't have to commute going to. If you have any specific questions I'd be happy to answer them. That said, there are a lot of opportunities opening up at the new Pinnacle as well as a decent amount of hiring scheduled for this year.

4 weeks ago i would have said Eagle all the way, but now with a possible pending spin off, and Pinnacle having a new contract signed last week (giving at least Mesaba pilots a raise, not 100% sure about everyone, don't want to give out bad info), i would lean towards Pinnacle, they seem like the stronger for the immediate future. Just my .02 cents!

I also agree with Lone Palm, whichever one would give you no commute, or the easiest commute.

Well I will relocate to both places... I have an offer with Eagle, and could get an interview with Pinnacle. I'd love ATL base, if not, I'd move to ORD with Eagle..

It seems they are telling people at the Pinnacle interviews that ATL is not an option because it's a CRJ900, senior base. So maybe that will help with your decision.

My buddy flies for Mesaba, said he got a raise that begins on the 18th?

Why would you NOT want to work for Pinnacle? Are you trying to say it's not a good company? This post made me upset, so I signed up to ask you this question.

I'm waiting for an answer.

The majority at XJ did not get a raise, he must be a jet FO if he got one.
