SkyWest=Forrest Gump

Re: Skywest=Forrest Gump

The 50-seat CRJ200 is criticized by some as operationally expensive and on its way to retirement, but it continues to be useful serving medium-size markets...the regional carrier produces profits even when other airlines fall flat.

Do you realize how many regional-hating-armchair-airline-economists on here just had a brain aneurism when they read that?

When the price of oil is so high that only the mega rich are flying, matching capacity to demand will continue to be an economic imperative and being a captain at an independant company that operates 30 to 90 seat aircraft may be an OK position in the skeem of things.

"Rather than dealing with unions and an organized workforce, SkyWest prefers what it calls the cornerstone of its success, an "open-door culture." ".

Since Skywest pilots love being undemocractic and non union... can any OO pilot explain managements

"open door culture"

 

[pilotyip]

Whatever

Since Skywest pilots love being undemocractic and non union... can any OO pilot explain managements

"open door culture"

Whatever it is is it must work, three times in a row overwhelming majority rejected a union, including a incuding a 32% pro-union vote in the last try.

That is fine... but can you quantify it?

I know management can..... they have successfully done it three times as you've just stated...

But I am asking the pilots.....

What is the "open door culture" at OO?
