Commuting from MSP to the west coast I would think might provide some challenges but I am sure it can be done. To make up for not upgrading faster at Endeavor you have the retention bonus for the next 4 years which will make life much much easier and better for you. My advice go to the place where you don't have to commute. Commuting is the devil.
Absolutely false. Come on guys.
Most of the new hires are all from out west and want nothing to do with Minneapolis. A vast majority.
80% of the flows will be coming from MSP. That means anyone wanting MSP will get it by the time their out of the school house and done with IOE. We have official word that our MSP base will not be shrinking anymore.
Stop saying you can't hold MSP when that's absolutely not the case. Some of you over at Endeavor think you know what's up over here but you don't.

I don't think you can count on MSP, especially if you can't get the 200. The money is the only reason to come to 9E and/or if you live in NY and can get the 900. Or if you are gambling on a Delta interview. Things are better at 9E but the QOL/schedules get worse every month.
I totally agree with this comment. SkyWest is ALSO a great bet if you want quick upward movement and decent QOL right away. Although their pilot group is huge so it will take a lot longer to upgrade.
Endeavor is wholly owned and that's never been a good thing considering Delta's record of previous wholly owned airlines.

Nope, that's 25 more downgrades at Endeavor. Probably be 9 yr Pinnacle guys. At least they get awesome senior FO schedules and LOA 50.

Funny, coming from you, the expert on 9E.

No, that's FO openings for those in new hire training. They have to have somewhere to bid into, which will be the remaining open FO slots. It's net upgrades on 15-02.

Who's looking at this wrong? I see positive movement on this realignment, not downgrades

I think people have forgotten how to read these without net downgrades. Now with the bloch award there could be some but who knows.
