No, the best pilots land on Mike. Duh

It wouldn't change a thing. They'd still buy the cheapest ticket they can find on Orbitz.

It always irks me to hear a pilot make this statement. Wouldn't you buy the cheapest ticket? The FAA has minimum standards and even airlines such as Mesa, GoJet, and whomever else you want to pick on today, has to abide by. When ticket prices effect whether or not airplanes crash or don't get to their destination in a timely fashion then people might consider paying a little extra. If it is a short flight, I couldn't care less who the airline is as long as it is the best ticket price for my time. If it is a long flight then I will shop for the cheapest seat on the best airline that I can afford based on comfort and service. To think that people would pay extra for a ticket so that you could benefit pay wise is simply unrealistic.

working on it weekly! Won't help your seniority number though, don't get too excited

SO when someone asks, "oh you're a pilot! Who do you fly for!?" it doesn't embarrass you to say ASa and then explain to them WTF ASa is and what we do? "BTW- I fly one of the most hated aircraft (by pax) in service today besides the fact my management completely inept and running the airline into the ground"

Didn't know you guys flew B-1900's. Amazing, another pilot who is validated by how much people like the aircraft that he flies......Son, that is called SJS. Funny, probably the biggest complaint that I read from your pilot group is that Mesa and Republic gave up YOUR pay to fly their big shiney jets for poverty wages.

Welcome to last month.



Don't forget "partner, ally, friend"



Wanna be delayed. Sure. Wanna have the flight cancel? Sure. Wanna see nothing but red arrow days? Sure What a new contract? Sure. Wanna get un-stacked? Sure. Wanna get your days off moved? Sure Want a pay raise? Sure



Jesus, have you learned NOTHING? That's why you DON'T tell them what you do directly. If you make up something, use you're a garbage man, or you train the star fish at Sea World.

But IF you do feel compelled to mumble something that vaguely resembles the truth, say this; "I'm a logistics and transportation coordinator. I make sure things get from A to B in one piece". If they need more detail, just say you "travel a lot". THEN, you deflect back by asking "what do you do?"

Works great with women since big words make it sound like it's a complex/exciting job AND you're not lying. Plus, chicks LOVE to talk about themselves so as soon as you deflect back onto them you're in the clear.

Working as a hotel's.com hotel evaluator. Works great!
