SKW never disciplined anyone for reasonable missed commutes, unless that's changed recently. The SKW non-policy was better than most other official policies (I had a room-mate at ASA, he had to use FMLA every time he missed a 4-day).
Few airlines are in a position to be commute nazis... they know they don't want to pay a living wage in major hubs. Otherwise they would just require that you live within 5 miles of the airport center point. |

I know of one first year pilot fired for a missed commute who was based in PDX.

ASA's contract gave them as many commute miss trips as they could use as long as they tried to get on two flights to get to work or try one flight for 3 different times a year. You skywest guys really need to look at some contracts instead of listening to rumors.

You are like word302 in the compass forum. Always popping in day by day when you don’t even work here.You must be senior to have enough time to come in here day by day and throw your hatred around each day at this airline. Sorry lol, the OO forum would be boring without you though. I always get a good chuckle at your posts. |

This is one issue i want nothing to do with. Our lack of a policy is in my opinion a benefit to us. For instance last week i had my first missed commute in 2 years. called off and no issue, then caught up to my trip and took it back. If we had this standard policy then i would have been in trouble for not giving myself 2 options to get to work. I never give myself 2 options so would be violating the policy. I am not a repeat offender so will never hear about it. even if i had more missed commutes i would never about it.

Reading comprehension problem? You would have been covered under the second half of the contract language that I had written. Get bumped off of one flight and you are covered as long as it does not occur more than 3 times in one year and you can pick up your trip.
Cognitive biases run rampant in this pilot group. To our own detriment unfortunately. |

I hate we are not unionized or that the group voted in a bad contract.
