Who has bases in PHL?

[Counselair]

Unemployment is running out, I'm tired of shoveling snow and the kids are driving me nuts. I need to get back to work. However, I'm done with commuting. Anybody know who is based in the Philadelphia/Atlantic City/Trenton area? Regionals, corprate charter, cargo it doesn't matter. Also if you have a minute, a brief run down on the company would be greatly appreciated (Ex. hiring? pay? upgrade time? etc.).

Thanks in Advance,

Counselair

Mesa.

Mesa has 1900 drivers and now CRJ drivers based in PHL. In fact, it's a mostly junior domicile. Hiring should take off like a rocket if and when the TA gets signed. Not a bad time to get in on the growth if you want to be in the upper half of a seniority list within 4 years. If the TA doesn't get signed, throw away your app unless you want to be working for Freedom because that will be all that's left.

Well hope you are able to find work!

I am sure its rough resigning a seniority number!

USA 3000 has a base in PHL. They have an all A320 fleet. They will be hiring but do have a training contract (2 years) and will require you to resign your senority number.

Thanks guys,

USA3000 only wants guys with Airbus time. As for Mesa and CHQ I really do need to make a little more money than they currently offer. Maybe after Mesas TA gets signed... My "Suger Momma" isn't as sweet as I hoped so money is definetly an issue. As `for resigning seniority, AMR by contract has to take you back within a ten year period regardless of tendering your number. If it's longer than ten years I hope to be doing something else by then anyway.

Thanks Again,
