A Burger King employee has better retirement than we have at OO.

There is nothing industry leading about skywest pay scales. You can't compare our second year pay to the other regionals unless you wanna consider our crap reserve rules, lack of retirement, and overpriced health insurance.

I'm pretty a Burger King employee has better retirement than any regional pilot.

Just throwing it out there, health care is pretty good at PSA and piedmont. Significantly better than Skywest and Republic.

I would be curious to know what benefits PSA offers. However, that is hardly a justification for the concessions you guys took when AA is posting record breaking profits quarter after quarter.

Instead of saying "pretty good" how about posting the plan? I doubt it's enough of an increase that it would justify the lower pay scale, not to mention the rest of the industry hating you. Probably not worth it.

I'd rather have no insurance than the PSA stain on my resume.

What's the retirement at Burger King? I know that at xjt you would get a 6% matching, a 6% contribution, and pay 25% of health care premiums.
Crappy retirement and healthcare plans are NOT universal among all regionals. Did the person that told you that have an agenda?
Didn't you just ratify the LOA that is increasing the cost of your health care premiums up to 35% (among other concessions)?

The PSA LOA ended up being a raise for most of the pilots. How do you feel about the pay freeze and no override for all the 700s SkyWest got about a decade ago while undercutting unionized AWAC and ACA? SkyWest has since taken many more concessions in the form of benefits and scheduling, how do you feel about those as well? I'd rather be at PDT or PSA than at SKW with the horrible benefits and work rules.
