Understand the pay is substantially different.
I was told "company records", for whatever that means.

Check the seniority tab on their website.
RJ CA is a little over 1 year.

Also, you will have to prove past 121 experience to get that "industry credit pay"....are you going to be able to get that from 19 years ago?
Most airlines only save them for the required 5 years.
RJ captain is now 8 months and dropping.

CommutAir - EWR

GoJet - DEN or ORD
Dude, it's Detroit. I guess the housing is cheap though. lol


I live out west, but based in DTW. In my opinion, it's the best base for CRJ drivers and the nicest Delta terminal in the country. Great crews, good flying, and good place for junior captains.

Is there decent housing available? - at reasonable prices?
I suppose there should be...with all the vacant homes!?

What type of flying? I heard mostly Delta and more legs than normal but shorter, compared to Other bases. 200s?
