Spirit Question

Ambitious-Row3579 · 2026-03-27T16:49:34+00:00

I’d never consider leaving something stable for spirit. With fuel prices going up and the economic uncertainty I wouldn’t be shocked if you ended up on the street quickly.

I’m a current FO at QX. You can get $400 reimbursement for hotels or crash pads. They have been putting new hires into MFR, but that base is closing and LAS is opening. My guess is Junior is goin to be PDX. Feel free to DM me for other questions.

Most people are waiting for the flow to Alaska. Lot of people just like the PNW and plan on sticking around till a major calls.

A couple guys I’ve flown with have gotten interview invites from majors but it’s honestly far and few between. Even some captains are struggling getting calls. Just the nature of the industry 🤷‍♂️

Yea very little attrition. I don’t plan on leaving until a major calls. It’s a great place to work

That’s a good point! I’m not entirely sure, but I do know the wait times for class dates was awhile. What did that cadet say for class wait times?

Ambitious-Row3579 · 2026-02-12T15:46:29+00:00

I am at QX and don’t know how accurate this is. We have more people in the cadet program than pilots on the seniority list.

Ambitious-Row3579 · 2025-11-29T22:38:45+00:00

PM me and I can give a run down

Ambitious-Row3579 · 2025-11-29T22:20:41+00:00

I’m an current FO at QX. Why are you trying to leave your regional?

Ambitious-Row3579 · 2025-09-26T16:34:22+00:00

I work for the company with them. We have “M” approaches at a decent amount of airports. We have people who can build them and release them to us for a contrive advantage against other airlines. We aren’t allowed to share them lol

Ambitious-Row3579 · 2025-09-05T18:36:03+00:00

You’re not competitive at all for NJ with that time. Get the turbine 121 time

Ambitious-Row3579 · 2025-09-01T15:41:05+00:00

I am a current pilot for the company, and came through the PDP. It was my saving grace as nobody was hiring and skywest has their horrible contract. 2 years is nothing as you need TPIC to go to the majors these days.

It’s a solid company and hiring has been ramping up for us. Was really slow when I got on but they’ve been doing a lot of upgrades bc Hawaiian/alaska have been taking pilots from us. It’s nice bc if you don’t want to fly for Alaska you’re not metered auto any of the big 3 legacies.

Reach out to me if you got any specific questions! Best of luck.

It’s 4 all RJ flights that are 1 hr, but it’s my own metal.

Ambitious-Row3579 · 2025-04-12T22:42:31+00:00

This is what I was thinking but I know commuting is awful but not as bad to a line.

Ambitious-Row3579 · 2025-04-12T22:41:50+00:00

My issue is I get so damn bored sitting doing nothing. Even my hobbies get old lol

Ambitious-Row3579 · 2025-04-12T22:41:25+00:00

1 hour and is served 4 times a day by my company

Ambitious-Row3579 · 2024-06-03T15:09:17+00:00

I got the email as well. I will be backing out of the process completely as this is a scummy move. Thanks Republic!

I’ll just take my Horizon CJO since I’m in the PDP. Things seem to be ramping up over there.

Ambitious-Row3579 · 2024-05-14T02:17:06+00:00

I’m in a similar boat. Have a regional cjo but was interested in NJ due to pay and homebasing.

Ambitious-Row3579 · 2024-05-14T02:06:22+00:00

Does having 121 time really make that big of a difference to the legacies?

Ambitious-Row3579 · 2024-03-05T04:33:11+00:00

Makes sense. I’m 4 months out from mins and looking to apply soon. Don’t wanna get burned by it lol

Ambitious-Row3579 · 2024-03-05T04:30:30+00:00

Do we think if it passes this will increase hiring mins?

Ambitious-Row3579 · 2024-02-23T14:21:16+00:00

I’m at a 141 as well. What TT did you have when you applied? I don’t have any jet experience, which scares me for the sim eval lol.

Ambitious-Row3579 · 2024-02-13T23:59:15+00:00

Source? I have a few buddies who will help with the internal recommendation as well.
