I would rather clean toilets with my tongue than fly for Mesa.
OR you could go fly a 1900 upgrade and make less than our FO's.
I.P. Freley said:Q: What happens when XJet's "exclusive" deal with Continental expires in a few years?
The only reason I ask is that an XJ captain I ran across recently, and a fairly senior one at that I gather, suggested to me that XJ was "screwed" (his term, not mine) when that point rolls around. He seemed to think they'd have to take concessions at that point or lose the Continental code-share... Because they wouldn't be able to compete with, among others, Mesa.
Frankly, this had never occurred to me until he brought it up, so.... Any thoughts from those currently in the XJ trenches?

McPickle, how long do you have to be an FO at ExpressJet before you're making $30 plus an hour? Not that that's a lot of money but does ExpressJet honestly pay their FO's this before four or five years' longevity with the company?
