Do dedicated skyw pilots always get AAC priority while non-dedicated are listed as D6?
I would assume the AA and AAWO pilots have priority in the back and the SKW pilot has priority in the jump seat. But, this is just a guess. I haven't found much in terms of guidance on AA nonrev'ing.

Thanks for checking.
That is what I guessed at the time but found an AAC example on the American site that said otherwise but doesn't specify airline. I didn't locate anything on Skyw site.

You can go to the PBS page on SkyWest online and click on bid info. It will give you the number of target line holders and show the number of reserve lines. Look at the seniority list and pick employee numbers and run them through the directory to see dates of hire.

What it won't show is guys senior enough to hold a line deliberately bidding reserve on purpose.-- Therefore someone that should be on reserve may be awarded a line or a composite schedule.

Should give you a general idea though.

Anyone know if they will send the new hire classes home over Christmas/New Years?

Looks like a few other employers have decided to do that. I just saw a FB ad for GoJet to do that plus $1,000 for travel "expenses". It is crazy how much this part of the industry has changed recently.
