Default Xjet/ASA/Skyw folks - Bail or Stay?

I thought it would be interesting to learn more about where my team members stand so...

** To clarify "STAYING", lets assume you are content here unless a miracle job offer comes along.

** To clarify "BAILING", lets assume that hiring picks up and in the next 3 years you can go to a job that you are reasonably expecting to be offered.

** To clarify "MERGED", lets assume ONE list, 2 year fences and some form of union even if a southwest SWAPA version.

Depends on what you mean by bail. I won't go to another regional, I'm happy where I am but I don't want to make it a career stop. If I can create the opportunity to move to a "mainline" carrier then I'll jump on it.

Delta, United, American, US Air, definately bail. Anything else, have to think about it. Would not go to another regional, even if SKYW imploded and I lost my job.

This is actually my last day at Xjet.. I'm really going to miss everyone here! I really have met some amazing people and it's kind of bittersweet.. I think I've been really lucky to have had this job over the years! Take care everyone

Just to make the poll more in touch with reality...most lifers rarely to never get on these forums. So id imagine that with every vote to stay it really represents more like 5 times that.

Thinking about jumping from ASA to SKYW. Still on first year pay so won't be that much of a pay penalty and I should be able to move back west as I am originally from SoCal.
