When are people going to realize... IT'S NOT ALL ABOUT PAY
Sure, their pay rates may not be top of the line (although many other regionals are now being forced to "align" their scales with Mesa) but it is mostly the fact that they treat their employees poorly and there is very few protections in the contract. For the most part, the Mesa crews I have seen are professional and competant. It is just that they are stuck with a contract (mostly from having to deal with getting Freedom back in house) that doesn't provide things like block or better, deadhead pay, cx pay, a large number of days off, no duty regs, no trip regs etc.
I may be wrong about a few of those things, but that is the over all issue.
