United tried to introduce segment fees last year... SkyWest balked, so the pass program remained unchanged. United loves to tell everyone how much money pass travel costs them and they are going to try to do as much as possible to try and recoup some costs. I am absolutely positive they are again going to try and make SkyWest pay segment fees, but don't think it will happen.

I'm hoping to interview with SW in a couple months. I flew for them about 5 yrs ago, had kids, had to quit, am trying to go back. My books are all about 5 yrs old. I have the old everything explained for the Professional pilot 4th edition. It was my favorite. Is it worth $50 to get the 10th edition? Has enough changed?

At a minimum, all of the rest rules/FAR 117 stuff has changed since that edition.

No one knows 117.
Flyingirl, if your past with SkyWest is relatively clean you may want try someone in hiring, they may take you on without an interview?

Obviously they're not going to the 'search' function in this thread or reading about 3 pages back 
To answer your question, everyone's getting MSP and ORD out of training. IAH, DEN, COS achievable within a month or two out of training. LAX and SFO are a few months behind that, with SEA/PDX/TUS/SLC/PHX being quite senior at the moment.
