And limited to 97 hours month? I have no idea where you got that from. Many guys are crediting well over 100 hours a month with the open time pickup. Personally I've been enjoying living in base with 16 days off and good schedules so yeah, in my situation GoJet is a good stepping stone. Not to mention there is basically no reserve time if you're a new hire. I'm not saying this company is the best by any stretch of the imagination, but if you want to move up a short seniority list and have some QOL, it can work for you.
Your scheduling was limiting guys to 97 hours and also had several other limits, non FAA, to make sure you could pick up trips that might interfere with your schedule if something ran over. Guys tell me the padding kills them when trying to pick up the overtime.
Is is still impossible to change your schedule? If you need a day off and want to drop a trip and pick up another one they won't let you, even if the credit is the same?
