    DH8 Weight Restrictions - Commute?

    Thanks. Looks like it's a 37 seat a/c but the US Airways wings non rev page shows 35 seats. Do they only book it to 35 due to the weight issues? It's showing it's booked to 30/35 right now. My wife and I are trying to get on so that would be 32 pax. Is that do-able?

    DH8 Weight Restrictions - Commute?

    Hi, I'm new to the US Airways Non rev deal. Anyhow, I'm trying to go from PHL-SWF (short flight) and it's showing 5 seats. Are the DH8's normally very weight restricted? I'm thinking with bad weather like most small a/c they are, but what about good weather? Are you able to take a full boat +...

    Bringing a puppy home via nonrev

    No charge for carry-on dogs on Delta for Non-Revs. If you "checked" your dog, it would be the same price as regular passengers pay.

    LGA or EWR to Chicago Commute Tomorrow!

    Trying to commute to Chicago tomorrow from the NYC area. Looks like I have the most options through LGA or EWR. I'm wondering with the shorter runways if LGA flights can be weight restricted. With the blizzard cancelations, all flights are completely full so I'm 99.9% sure I'll be up front. Any...

    If Your Company Opens A New Base, How Does it Work?

    Hmm... I don't remember signing the CBA with Continental pilots. Oh wait... that's right, I didn't. How could I be in VIOLATION of SCOPE then? Oh... that's right... I can't. Hey, I'm all for the fight and totally agree with what you are fighting for. This isn't a fight you need to have with...

    If Your Company Opens A New Base, How Does it Work?

    Could the company simply only award HALF of the projected 72 at Eagle at their discretion? Like if you put your bid in and it looks like you'll be number 30 (not too bad % seniority) but then the company only awards 35 your % seniority would suck. Is that allowed? Or are they required to award...

    If Your Company Opens A New Base, How Does it Work?

    Okay... so here at SkyWest we don't really have any set procedures for opening up a new base and vacancies. I haven’t really read through our policy manual but it’s kind of pointless because this is what the company is currently doing: 1) They announce 2 new bases: IAH & MSP. They say they...

    ASA Bad news is out.

    ASA and SkyWest are 2 different airlines run by different management groups. SkyWest Airlines DID NOT want to take the 2 for 1 deal for more 900's. Brad Holt and ASA took that risk in hopes of finding additional flying. Sure, Inc has a ton of say about things, but when it comes down to signing...

    Does you airline offer an Health Savings Account Health Plan?

    Interested in what other airlines besides OO offer an HSA. If they do offer it, how much do they deposit and is it a yearly contribution to it or just one time? Thanks!

    ASA Sked+

    Does ASA's Sked+ allow you to do post your trip to TRADE with something else that you may want. I remember when I was at ASA on Flica, you could say that you wanted to trade you 4 day for a 3 day on certain days. Then someone would propose a trade and you both could approve or deny it. At...

    Delta Jumpseaters on ASA/SkyW

    I use to work at ASA and now I work at SkyWest or ScabWest or whatever you want to call it. You need to really look up the definition of a scab, because we are not. The grass is MUCH greener at SkyWest. People are happier. They are happy to work towards a common goal of making the company work...

    SkyWest ATL Base???

    Now I know I've heard through the rumor-mill that SkyWest is going to open an ATL base, but do we really think this is going to happen? I mean I know they are planning on operating the 900's out of ATL, but what's their plan to get the airplanes/pilots here? Will it be through an outstation...
