Thanks! Hypothetically if one were to be LAX based and transfers to ORD, would the flight benefits on AA and AS be removed? I’m planning on moving to the ORD area, and wanted to see how that’ll affect things.

Contract flying
I’ve been an FO at SkyWest for about 3 years. Does anybody know if it is okay to do contract flying on the side? I’ve been flying a Challenger 604 about 250 hours a year on the side and it has really helped augment the low pay at SkyWest. Somebody was saying that the company wouldn’t like that. Is that true? I don’t see what the big deal is.

Here’s a legit question. Does SkyWest have ZED/ID90 fares with any airlines in the Middle East? Specifically Qatar, Emirates, or Turkish?
I travel there frequently to visit family, and I guess it would be nice if the benefits we got could get us on those airlines (potentially even in business or first if allowed).
