Why

So if SkyWest buys ASA, will ASA stop paying during training and make you pay to fly to the interview?

Why should SkyWest pay for your ticket to go to an interview? Just an honest question.

I know there are several companies that will take care of your travel arrangements to their interview. For someone who isn't exactly raking it in as a flight instructor it can be difficult to pay for ticket to an interview and then go through training sans pay.

I'm not trying to bash SkyWest. I have friends there who love it and encouraged me to apply, but borrowing money or running up credit card debt to pay for food is not an option for some of us, especially trying to pay that off on first year salary.

To answer your question, I wasn't trying to imply SkyWest should pay for the ticket to the interview. It seems like they are having no problem filling classes. I was just curious about some possible issues with a change in ownership and management.

They wouldn't "pay for your ticket". I believe he was simply referring to other companies' policy of providing space available travel on their airline and/or airline partners. A very common practice.
