I would be commuting out of IAH. Tons of flights between the two cities.

Ouch
Filler

To my knowledge I would say it's a hard commute, anytime you go base to base for a mainline it becomes difficult (united have bases in IAH and ord), but maybe someone else can chime in. Def a lot of options tho.

I have watched load factors and the commute seems doable (for now).

Skywest is actually doing some ORD-IAH flights for AA right now. So that will help. Can't say if we'll continue. That commute is doable but leave a few options.

Plenty of options with UA (although being 2 of their crew bases it might get tricky at times). AA has a couple of flights a day (Eagle flights that recently are operated by SkyWest, so better chances there) and Spirit has a couple of flights seasonal from here and there . Pretty doable

Does anyone have numbers on the Q4 performance bonus paid out recently? Where can I find the amount distributed and pilot wide credit?

My bonus was lower than I was expecting so I wanted to do the math.

Well, the operationl performance rewards are posted on SWOL, updated frequently. As for the financial perf reward I think the ballpark formula is to multiply your quaterly earnings times the net margin posted there as well.

I did that commute for about a year. Granted it was abput 3 years ago. Its pretty horrible commute. During this time of year its not too bad.. during summer and holidays though watch out. Ive been bumped from flight after flight. I had to use the commuter clause quite a bit.. if skywest os doing any flights in between the 2 cities that should help.

Which is a better commute from SLC...ORD or DTW?

Both are awful...I know. Just in case I get off IOE and don't have something on the west coast to commute out of SLC. I bid ORD because I figured it was bigger...easier crash pads.
