200s are staying in principle but the overall count appears to go down a little bit. A number of them (I believe 15 or so) came of UA contract and that is likely to continue. Maybe they find another home for them but I would expect some 200 reduction too.

SFO Hotel
 

Do we have a crew hotel/good rates at or near SFO please? Looking for just tonight. Thanks

Only reduction are the ones nearing timing out, MT said they have almost all hit max depreciation. Ones off contract will go to at risk, or providing EAS since a few small carriers are having a hard time meeting obligations.

try the redroof

Thanks for the insights folks!

You're kidding, right? Without a type rating, SKW pays $33,288 first year. With the bonus, $40,788. That's about $23,700 less than Endeavor, and about $21K less than the AA WOs.

How is it in line with "other regionals"? If you mean more than Mesa and Go Jets, I'd agree. Middle of the pack, perhaps.

There are first year guys that make all over 33 first year.

Tried to find it, as I remember reading it somewhere here, but couldn't. Can someone give me the break down of training? How long for I doc/systems/sims etc? From day one, how long were you in SLC? Thanks! Heading to ATL for Ctp on the 4th

Indoc plus ground is 3 weeks. Sim can start anywhere from the day after ground to up to 4 weeks after finishing ground and it's close to 4 weeks long. Sim can be in SLC, ATL, CVG, and STL (unless they already moved the ATL and CVG sims to DEN, last I heard the move hasn't been completed yet).

There are FO's at Piedmont that made 100k by picking up 300% overtime on days off and not having a life. He was talking about just base pay, which is over 20k higher.

I don't agree with picking a regional based on where you currently live. Unless you are independently wealthy or have a sugar momma you want to pick a regional that has the best opportunity to get you out the fastest. If you want the 2 year upgrade or whatever the junior upgrade is you have to move to a junior base anyway. I think it's worth it to upgrade a year or two quicker. It could get you to a major a year or two faster. Your talkin 200-400k on the back end of your career. When you get to a major then pick a base where you want to live. They have lots of em.


Using that logic if I lived in Houston I would just work for Mesa. Not a good career move especially now the quick upgrade is gone.
