Cobra is the continuation of benefits. There's no such thing as being worse than cobra. Cobra is simply a continuation.

There is medical and dental, they're both expensive though. There are 4 different tiers of coverage with 'family' obviously being the most expensive.

Family is $540 a month which is definitely a lot in my opinion. There's a $500 deductible (an 80/20 split after the deductible has been met), with $1900 max out of pocket per person (or $3800 per family). Prescriptions are $10 and there is no co-pay for doctor visits.
There is a co-pay for emergency room visits and I think that's 100 bucks.

Greatest insurance in the world? No. Cheapest? No. But to say that it's 'worse than cobra' is simply ignorant. You either pay no attention to your coverage or you are still on your parents' plan.

Again, since COBRA is a continuation of benefits from your previous employer, the amount you must pay VARIES from employer to employer. So to ask "is it worse than COBRA?" depends on an individual's situation; it is impossible to make a blanket statement like that.

Sadly, it appears that GoJet offers MUCH better insurance than at my airline for next year...

Right back at you.

Obviously something attracts you to troll and post on the G7 forums. If it is not jealousy then I will assume you have nothing better to do with your free time which is sad sad sad. Keep your head up---something will come your way.

I believe it's called being on reserve.

I call it cancellation pay :cool:

Panent's plan.... That funny, I pay $340/month for family that's double what we use to pay per month in our last contract. I never said it was more than Cobra, I asked if it was. No need to put words in my mouth.

Call it what you want but it still takes time and effort to keep up with every G7 post and then post comments that are often not true. All I know is that I usually spend my time on things that interest me and pertain to me. I find it sad and funny that the haters can not live without keeping up with and commenting on G7. Justify it any way you want to but the truth is people can't seem to stay away. Now bring on the one liners and lets get this clever party started.

Best scene in the whole movie.

Seriously? You guys are actually going to even go there about a jumpseat? I can understand how a legacy pilot for TSA could be upset about an "A-lister" from their ranks and want to leave said pilot behind. But for someone from another carrier to threaten that is just plain silly. The jumpseat is something we all use to get around - this is nothing new. However, use it as a weapon and you're going to tick off a lot of your fellow coworkers if they no longer hop XYZ airline to work because it might be more convienent. I know the original comments about denials, face to face, was inflamatory. But don't bite. It's not worth your time because there's always going to be that one carrier that all other regional pilots are going to want to bag on and right now it's G7. In the future it's going to be someone else's turn. Besides how is it even relevant to the orginal post about expansion to begin with?

So, wasn't there supposed to be some sort of announcement today?

Most of the guys who are "at another carrier" were furloughed from TSA.

The growth rumor turned out to be false.

That's such a shame...:rolleyes:

lol... rl did talk about how great it would be to have hundreds of aircraft on property... that's right.. he said hundreds.

that's one of the funnier ones that you've posted.

Looks like this thread is going the way of all past G7 threads - my pee pee is bigger than your pee pee.

False rumors, jumpseat denial, twiddling thumbs while on reserve, funny nerd clapping hands, and who knows what else.
