I just got a new pan, i've used it a few time but i just read and found out that i need to season it. I also read that some modern ones come pre seasoned but how do i tell? The pan i got is a 9.5 Berndes basic.

Hmmm . If u can take the handle off try rubbing some grease inside of the pan and put it in the oven upside down for about a hour. It seems to work for me.

It came already seasoned, and we use the skillet a lot.
When I clean it (using hot water and kosher salt as I know I should) and then dry it off, I rub a bit of oil into it.
My question is, can I use PAM or oil spray to coat the skillet?

I always heard about "seasoning" a cast iron skillet or pot but never understood why its done with cast iron but not with, say stainless steel or aluminum. Anyone?
