One more question.....is it true that you now need an internal rec?

You don't even need a letter of recommendation, period.

And "2" to the referral bonus. But I've been told it's difficult to get them to actually pay it out. I'm in the process right now.

I've received every referral bonus with little effort. After the referral passes IOE, I email CL in recruiting and my bonuses have arrived every time in the next pay check.

Yep it's a constantly changing value

Do you ever want to be a jet captain? Don't go to Horizon. You might be ok as an FO but be flying the Q (if it's still around) as a Capt. they are canceling tons of flights.

If you're having to contemplate driving to work for an airline that is providing lift for others or trying to commute on a very commuter heavy route for an airline that is canceling flights and parking planes, there is another issue at hand.

DVR is being updated still, but so far no vacancies in west coast bases anticipated besides a few more in BOI and SAN....does this mean transfers out of SFO, SEA, LAX and PDX will result in shrinkage of the seniority list in each of those bases ? In other words BOI and SAN were simply robbing Peter to pay Paul?
E175 orders are fulfilled as of July...

Yes. All the 175s have been delivered so any new base that opens up dilutes the flying from the other existing bases.

This airline has grown by 1000 pilots.
Peter wasn't there yesterday.
