The only time I was ever called on RDY was immediately after blocking in from a reserve assignment flight. My recommendation, leave soon enough that you're a solid 5-10 minutes down the highway by the end of your airport jail time. You can make it back, and pay to park in short term if you have to in :20.

Why did Skywest recently change their checklists? Just curious because the same was done at ASA.

So getting worked up over this being a sign of a pre-merger would be hysterical I take it?

That would add insult to injury.
I just jump on the shuttle bus a couple minutes before the end of purgatory...

And speaking about parking, does SKW pay for it or reimburses part of it?

Adding RDY to the end of assignment happens nearly every day at SKW. Amazingly enough they've never once called me during RDY. I usually spend the time working on my other job (on my laptop at the SFO Starbucks), perched on the edge of my chair for the 4:00 pm shuttle to the employee parking lot. If anyone is in SFO's Terminal 2 on a given weekend around 3:00, stop by the Starbucks next to the Virgin ticket counter and say hi. I'll be the guy trying to pretend my phone doesn't exist

You guys actually sit ready at the airport? I thought it was CS trying to pay for your drive home.
