Southwest gets profit sharing. Spirit does not.

Spirit's new contract is still pretty solid. Don't get me wrong.

Ok, thanks!!! The website say most junior MSP FO is 2/8/18, but wasn't sure if that's accurate or not now. Want MN or WI basing to not commute, so trying to pick Air WI vs Skywest. Basing almost makes or breaks my decision, so if I can't get MSP out of training I can get MKE for sure.

For schedule, I was just looking for a typical 4 day line, and how much flight time per month roughly you can expect.
ex: day 1= 0600 show, MSP STL MSP ORD MSP CWA release 1730, day 2 etc...

Also wondering how much one fluctuates between 200/700/900. You can pm me or share for others. Either way thanks for the help

The most junior FO in MSP is definitely not 1 year. New hires a couple months ago got awarded MSP. September hires are getting lines in MSP.
7/900 flying tends to go senior. 200 tends to go junior. Once you get a line, you can expect to block 75-95 hours a month, unless you bid for standups. Credit will be 88-110 a month as a lineholder in MSP. PM me and I can give you some example of schedules.

ATL? Who knows.
IAH? I don't think so.

Does Delta fly the 175 out of ATL?
If not somebody will be tapped to do that in the near future.

They do not, and they won’t. 175s are needed in competitive markets, where delta has to have something to compete with. Atlanta is the least likely DL hub to have 175 flying

Word is 9E is getting 175’s so I’d imagine that’s the most likely 175 ATL flying.

There is no ERJ flying out of ATL and there are no rumors of it going to ATL.

ATL is only 200s right now, but there are some rumors of some 700s heading over there.

From this months inprint..
The Delta E175 SCs are going to be ying primar- ily in the East, and we recently announced plans to open a new E175 crew domicile in LaGuardia (LGA) in May. This domicile will initially be sta ed with reserves and will help us align our system with our partners’ needs and provide more op- tions for crewmembers across the system.


Mike: We operate in several
challenging hubs, but New
York is a special kind of chal-
lenge, and along with it, a
pretty cool opportunity for
us. Delta has placed high
priority on their New York
markets, and it says a lot that
they are entrusting SkyWest
people with these high value
customers.

Given LGA’s space constraints and congestion, extensive pre-planning has taken place to en- sure we’re as prepared as we can be and set up for success. We’ll crew most of that ying out of our ORD base, and the overnight maintenance will be done at our existing maintenance bases in the Midwest. We’ve been working for quite some time to ensure we have a strong infrastructure for our now coast-to-coast operations,
