I received one, despite being an active SKW pilot. Perhaps I should apply and ask for the $7,500 signing bonus, seeing as how I'm already typed.
FaceBiter, will you refer me? Then we can split the $1,200 referral bonus...

i got one even though I start class there in a few weeks. The 3 year upgrade thing better be wrong as I want to upgrade sooner than that, get my 1000 hours if needed and then get to the majors asap!! I'm planning no more than 4 years. I'll fly on my days off to get my hours up and then be off.
Anyone think the upgrade time will be at a few months like Compass any time soon?

Based on the unsolicited "come work for Skywest" advertisement that was waiting in my mail when I came home today, I'd say that people aren't banging down their doors. I've never applied or shown any interest in there so I'm guessing they are just mailing out to people with ATPs. I tried to get my free lanyard they advertised in it, but they wanted $6 shipping. No thanks.

SkyWest plans on 2.5 year upgrades as long as the we can get newhires.. We have been so far.. That was the big push on getting our TA to pass. Tons of "flying opportunitys" if we can hire enough.. A mailer seems dorky but it sure seems to have grab the attention of people.. Even on here...

Upgrade times are an ever changing number, at every airline, on every level. No way to truly tell what tomorrow will bring. Seniority is everything...the sooner one gets in, the sooner one can move up...and that's the truth.
