SkyWest training pay

[No.W.]

Isn't $1460 about right for beginning FO pay at a lot of regionas? I think thats actually a lot higher than places like Lakes and Mesa? Whats the average paycheck, once trained at SKW, on a monthly basis?

When I went through training at COEX, I got that 1460 for the entire span of training from first day of class to sim-ride when I became a "real employee". So, the answer is no...because my training took a little bit longer than 4 weeks. I am not saying CoEx isn't doing bit better...but it is only a bit. I had a roommate during training at CoEx...I had a roommate during training at SkyWest(and at least SkyWest provided us with a two-room suite). Got a little more money at CoEx...Got furloughed. Working at SkyWest...made to second year pay and have enough cash to pay off lots of debt. That was only my personal situation, though.

Is $1600 first year pay? I heard 2nd year pay is something like 34K - true?

 

[No.W.]

That is true for me, yes...looking to be on par to make about mid-30's this year(my second year).

 

[No.W.]

Oh, yeah, that 1600 was TAKE HOME...but for now, I am still looking at taking home about 30K this year...sorry for the confusion.

On the Jet first year pay is 19.02/hr
2nd year is 34.54/hr...if you want the actual numbers

Are you being paid 75 hrs per month guaranteed? Ever go over?

Re: I'll Take Eagle!

Decent pay during training, $21 per hour x 62 hours.

$24 per diem, 7 days per week.

Hotel provided SINGLE occupancy.

Spouses allowed to stay with you.

Wow.

As AeroMexico signs off to SoCal, "Vaya con dios..."

To ILS:

almost every month I have been on reserve I have broken guarantee(75 hrs)...and broken it big. I can hold a line now and choose to continue to bid reserve for days off...however... So, yeah, I am making a decent wage(IMHO). Later...

When I interviewed at SkyWest a while back (before they changed their policy) they told me I would be paid during training and provided a hotel room.

A week before ground school was to start they called and told me I'd no longer be paid and I'd have to share a hotel room or pay for half if I wanted it to myself. Then they gave me some story about cost cutting and the UAL contract.

I politely reminded the caller that I'd already been told otherwise training pay and the hotel at the interview. She basically said too bad. I basically said thanks but no thanks.

We've got to start standing up for the profession and ourselves.
