Just wait until amncd and all of them arrive to tell us NOW that SkyWest pilots are the highest paid in the regional market. 
Hopefully Envoy and the rest of the wholly owneds follow suit so that more pressure can be put management's shoulders.

Just as a reality check for you, Endeavors first year CA pay is higher than Skywests 10 year CA pay. And they are hiring street captains now.
Add in their positive space to work, Delta interview, and all overtime at 150% open time and anything over 85 hours and it’s a no brainer.

And how do you suggest we staff all these new airplanes when the bottom falls out of Skywest and newhires start leaving to Endeavor? I’m sure the AA wholly owned are soon to follow.

Have you seen feild of dreams... joking. But how will the small regionals (600~ pilot size) survive. The majors will hire that many in under a month soon!! Were all screwed. Doesn’t matter if its SkyWest or Compass. Majors will hire over 19,000 pilots in the next 10 years.. game over for all of us.. or game on for all of us going to the Majors..

Skywest can match any rate that becomes industry standard and still be cheaper.
This is a really great time to be alive in the airline world. Anything could happen.

Skywest currently operates 53 crj200 on pro-rate agreements that can be terminated with 120 days notice. That’s a buffer of about 550 pilots.
