Sun Country pay at Year-3 is far greater than Regional Pay at year-3.

If you live in MSP then I’d consider SY but if a new base opens up you might be commuting for awhile anyway. It seems to me SY is higher risk but might work for some.

They increased pay by $4 per hour for new hires. Thats a whopping extra $300 per month. Expect a take home paycheck of $1300-$1400 every 2 weeks.
Most first year FO's work Uber or Door Dash to keep food on the table.
