Mainline salaries are going to go up considerably over the next 5 years. Unless you're independently wealthy, it's a serious mistake to stay at a regional, as you are spending even more time doing the same job for a lot less pay.

Buzz words, my friend. As you read posts you should look for buzz words like millennial, entitled, and social just warrior to name a few. If you find a post with these key words being used in a not ironic way, it's best just ignore what the poster is saying. Chances are it's drivel.

Two dozen regionals shut down? I can think of Comair and ACA. Could you list the others?

I thought I'd be a lifer. Year 17 on the pay scale and I make OK money (over $80K ytd, should hit $125-130K for the year)and don't work to hard. In my own bed nearly everyday and I've been around my 3 kids growing up. Living in SLC is relatively cheap as airline domiciles go and I won't commute.
With that though I know when I top out on pay here in a couple more years I'll get at best a 1% raise every 12-18 months. It won't come close to keeping up with inflation. That alone may force me to move on.
