best travel benefits...
 

APC does a great job with most of the stuff but I'm looking to find out which regionals have what travel benefits for you and your family.

If by best you mean which ones aren't the worst...

Anyone with Delta benefits seem to be marginally happy until you get bumped by a retired gate agents step son.

Haha

The company that pays you enough to afford a purchased ticket for you and your family.

Skywest has benefits on United, Delta, American and Alaska. American and Alaska are base specific. All CRJ pilots get United and Delta. E175 pilots only get United but Delta flying is coming this summer.

I think Skywest is the only carrier where you can potentially have benefits on 3 majors at the same time.

Disclaimer: American and United benefits kind of suck for your family members due to segment fees and inability to list for first class on American. Delta is the best benefit.

That!! ^^^^.


But all that aside, I'd have to say the American wholly owned regionals do. But, they also have some of the lowest pay and worst QOL too. You could go make more at almost any other regional and just pay for tickets.

I agree on the current pay at the AA wholly owned regionals. However qol at PSA is pretty good for line holders.

True, I can't speak for psa and Piedmont QOL, but for QOL at envoy...LOL.

You can't make that much more. I've flown international first class multiple times with my AA wholly owned benefits. That's worth thousands of dollars. I'm not saying it's better than a higher pay rate, but saying any regional pilot can just pony up for tickets because of an extra $5/hr is silly.

To the OP, where do you live? AA benefits are great, but if you live at a United or Delta hub, those might work better for you. The less legs you have to fly, the better chance you have if getting on.

The AA wholly owned are great mainly because you are on the same priority as AA employees. AA along with One World being the largest out there, you can practically go anywhere in the world. I've never had a major problem flying around with a family of three even during the holidays, summer, and spring break. I do however have to get a little creative though during peak travel. First is going to be free come summer.
