Q400 Rates on the horizon for SkyWest?

[mrnolmts]

Rumor has it that if you guys get it on property, you are close to accepting flying the Q400 for your current CRJ200 rates??? Any truth to this?

 

[Nevets]

Not true.

True or not, jerry has to line something up especially IF CAL holds the line on scope and those crappy crj200s go where they belong. It does make sense though. kudos to uncle jerry and his 12 wives !

 

[Oakum_Boy]

They'll accept whatever is thrown at them

 

[cbrown1]

Not true.

Tehnically he works for Inc, so he infact works for Skywest.....Inc. There are guys on the SAPA forums who are having a hard time typing, due to the giant chubbies the have while thinking about the "Q".
Pathetic

What does anyone know? Management never shares, they wouldn't want us to be able to plan our futures.

So if he is your uncle you have 12 aunts?

I do know that Skywest pilots do not have a contract. So there is nothing to accept. If you get Qs, it will be at whatever rates they decide to give you. Kind of like when they decide to pay the Skywest pilots 50 seat rates for the 700. That is all I was speaking to when I said not true to that post.

As for the validity of Skywest actually getting Qs, I have absolutely no idea if it is true or not.

I'm sure they will wait for Horizon to finalize its rates and then set their rates 10 percent below those.

What Horizon does is irrelevant. First of all they're pretty much finished, second of all Skywest pilots will take what they're given same as they always have.

Horizon is pretty much finished because after 11 years not one regional has had the balls to come close to their pay scale. Even Mesaba's "industry leading" contract used qx's q4 pay scale for 900s and went down from there.

Jerry told SAPA that he would like to open discussions for a Q400 payscale sometime in the near future. Nothing has happened yet but I cant see us flying them at CRJ rates since getting the Qs would only effect afew hungry that want the quick upgrade and most of us dont need to fly it or give two sh!ts if its on property and those few that want it wont get the 50% plus 1 vote unless its a great payscale.

Apperantly, a few of you dont realize you dont need a UNION to vote...

Exactly! Skywest can just pay the pilots Horizon +10% without "negotiating" with sapa or putting anything to vote.

haha.

Negotiating? That's rich. Jerry says frog, SAPA jumps.

No, we don't need a dispatcher telling us how to vote.

No way! The pilots vote for the SAPA reps and then the reps negotiate with Jerry and then the pilots get to vote on the 1% pay raise!!!
