Taken from Eaglelounge from one of the DFW reps.
If they are claiming we are understaffed with zero-time lines, minimum to below guarantee lines, and reserves flying ZERO hours, at what point are we properly staffed?
envoy management has shown their hand that they have no intention to follow any agreed upon contract or award. Choose wisely if you have any desire to "flow" because their illustrious recruitment tool appears to be a farce.
Instead of flow through agreements, the focus should be on better pay and better benefits for the Envoy pilot group. Frankly, that should be the focus at all contract carriers. There would be no need to obsess over flow through if pay and benefits were solid. Last time I checked, we operate these airlines in the same airspace, same weather conditions, under the same regulatory environment, and with the same required emphasis on safety. The folks I fly in the back of my jet also fly on mainline.
