Now if you want to talk about inadequate staffing levels then you have something.
Yep they stopped flow and new hires. They are sticking it to EVERYONE. All airlines that had pilots selected to go to AA during most of the last half of this year got screwed by AA. I hate it when AA sticks it to everyone like that.
Those contractual items were violated due to lack of staffing. The contract also addresses that the airline would be adequately staffed. The inaction on their part results in QOL hits for us. The airline should have to staff in order to meet the needs required by the contractual obligations like turn backs, flowing 50%, not growing the fleet, etc....
IMO flow will continue for the foreseeable future and the flow rate will not go up because Envoy will always try to grow and succeed even if it means metering the flow.
