Burt Reynolds said:Got a couple more questions...
Fight benefits. Are you allowed to list on United/Delta (which ever side you're working on)? What type of pass? Does a United/Delta ramper's grandmother get better passes? Do you have to pay charges?
CASS?
Is reserve still "relatively" short in ORD?
Any idea of how many more aircraft SkyWest will be getting?
Thanks!
As a pilot, you can list on both, regardless of what brand your plane carries. The details are somewhat convoluted, so I won't go into them. On the mainline carriers, you will be below everybody on the SA list but those travelling on mainline buddy passes. For SkyWest, it's based on your DOH.
SkyWest is CASS-approved.
My friend hired in September is still on reserve in ORD, and has been desperately trying to transfer since hire because the commute from DEN is difficult. This may change as more people are hired. Also bear in mind that everyone transitioning over from the EMB keeps their seniority number, and hence will kick you down on the list. This presumes, of course, that you get hired for the CRJ instead of the EMB120, in which case, ORD is not an EMB domicile.
Who knows. ASA will be getting 900's, SkyWest plans to take one of ASA's current planes for each 900 they get (sorry, guys, I know it's tough to lose a domicile and be forced to move. My sympathies). There are RUMORS about 900's for United, but there are no current plans made public for anything like this. I believe we took delivery of 13 or so new 700's this spring. For more information, I would suggest browsing the SkyWest website.
