I know all about them I used to fly for QX and spent many a DH's in back talking with a lot of loyal Alaska/Horizon passengers. Think Midwest days type of loyalty and for as long as the AS/QX name exists people will fly them.

Maybe this is what you were thinking about? http://airchive.com/blog/2014/05/22/...y-and-spokane/

Doesn't specifically state SkyWest is flying it, but it will be a CRJ-700 operator so chances are highly likely.

Delta also is starting non-stop service between Spokane and Los Angeles with one flight daily beginning June 10.

Seattle to L.A. flights will depart at 6.40 a.m., 11.54 a.m. and 6.55 p.m daily. Flights from L.A. to Seattle leave at 8:31 a.m., 3:20 p.m. and 9:20 p.m.

From Spokane, the flight will leave for L.A. at 6:45 a.m. daily. The L.A.-Spokane flight leaves at 7.50 p.m.

Both the Seattle and Spokane flights will be year-round and operated by SkyWest Airlines (as a Delta Connection).

Chill, Nancy. All I'm saying is, everytime Alaska and Delta try to one-up each other on a new route, SkyWest seems to somehow end up doing the flying. I've provided plenty of evidence.

Skywest may win but all pilots lose in the long run. More outsourcing = fewer good career jobs.

Do you guys happen to know if Skywest is interviewing people below ATP Mins? I know a couple of airlines have been interviewing people below mins and then telling them to call when they have the hours or just giving them a far out class date. Also, Skywest does not use Airline Apps correct? You apply directly through their website?

Thanks!

This right here. NVUS seems pretty happy about his beloved SkyWest getting more work. I've been lurking a good bit I notice who the Kool-Aid drinkers are.

Yes they do. I interviewed about 150 hours before I got my R-ATP mins with around 850 TT. I called to get it all rolling, got my app in, then got a call back.

You're right, we should say no. No thanks, Delta. Let Compass have it. Or Mesaba. Or Shuttle. Or GoJet. Anyone but us, we already have enough. Thanks, though.
