Quote: No. Mesa doesn't have the same flight benefits, very expensive for what you get. If it's just you jumpseating, oh well there you go.
Moot point.
Honestly if you want better flight benefits you should quit the regionals and go get a non flying position at mainline.
So who was on that conference call?
It was an hour and a half of JO not confirming or denying any rumors. Funny hearing flight attendants and mechanics call in and start with "I heard from a pilot" lol sounds like he's very confident we'll get more flying and has a personal goal of doubling the fleet in 5 years.

Did he discuss how he plans on staffing that many airplanes when the majors open the floodgates?

The age 65 rule caught up to us 2 years ago... I'm not convinced there will be any sort of hiring free-for-all.

That's what I got out of it too...

Sounds confident we are going to be doing business with Delta again.

Also we remain the #1 on-time UAX feed, sounded very confident we would be the ones to get the 2nd batch of 30 E175s.

Working on another 7-10 CRJ900s with american. CRJS remain priority over E175s with business w/ American.
I heard Mesa lost the South American CRJ bids. They still have the routes from AA but need to find 900s.

That's what I heard. We are actively looking for more 900s.

Would it be a smart move to hire the pilots for additional flying if we don't have the aircraft yet?

JO also said we are currently overstaffed by 40 pilots.
