Every time I see a new Silver thread, I'm expecting to see that the company is closing.
Just sayin'...

Well, it IS hard to beat GoJet when they have THE highest CRJ pay in the regional industry!

lol you know we have a Silver tread already which can answer any and all questions most of the time. i mean hell i already posed the first to years pay if the go there as a FO.

but as for Cuba they did get a lot of the smaller cities they put in for.

The Frontier thing is a joke at best because because it needs the ok from the company to flow and they are soo short on people they will not get anyone to flow.

Then why do all their pilots look so miserable? I've never seen more dejected-looking flight crew as in the DEN B concourse.

Sorry but that's BS. A gojet FO who makes more than I do would be working ridiculous amounts of hours on his days off. They aren't paying his base pay at 75%. I can work 75 hours at F9 and the Gojet FO would have to work at least 100.

I don't know about GJ, but I know several TSA FOs who were getting 140 hours a month during 200%. I can't imagine if it was 300%.

So regional jets?

New Pay/Bonuses?
Medical/Dental?
Uniforms?
Realistic upgrade if you have way over the 1000 121 PC time?
Bases?
Pay/Hotel in training?
CASS?

Thank you.

Its called 300% pay for any open time the past almost year at GoJet. I have 2 good friends that are captains that are still 12 days off a month and credit 140-160 hours a month. They bid min credit and get 14-15 days off in the bid run then pick up a 3 day or 4 day at 300%. They also have a lot of trips in Denver that end on the last day at 9am or 10 am they just then pick up another turn at 300% and get done at 2 pm instead. They both said they will easily make over 120k this year. Say what you want they are paying some big boy regional money at G7 to all flight crews regardless of FO or Captain.

Yep... I just spoke to a friend of mine who is Cpt over there and he said he made close to $10k this month. He is a very low seniority Cpt too.

Thank you.
RJs are part of our future plan however nothing is written in stone yet.

Yes on both Med and Dental, do you have a family or are you alone?

Uniforms are basic black pants and shirt, $150 per year uniform allowance which can be used to buy your initial uniform.

Upgrade is going around 20 months for everyone, we need more FOs to be able to upgrade. If we have enough then it'll drop significantly.

FLL, TPA, MCO, IAD with IAD being the most JR at the moment.

Training pay is 4 hours a day at yr 1 pay. If you come in Aug 1 you'll be paid 34/hr 4 hours a day 6 days a week. PerDiem is on top of that and unless I'm mistaken it's 24 hour perdiem in training. This could have changed though.

Hotel is single occupancy

Yes we have CASS
