I would stay away from them just for that reason and stay away from any non-Wholly Owned regional that flys for just one carrier.
I’d go to Envoy for the reasons you mentioned. You’ll be living local so reserve in base won’t be as bad.
All very good points.
I feel like AWAC could be a great option, especially if UAL expands their scope or even buys them out (scope permitting), but that hinges on so many unknowns. I agree with you - very true about any non-wholly owned carrier that flies for just one carrier... flying here today, gone tomorrow. United has even publicly stated they're ready to move on from 50-seaters. Envoy at least isn't going anywhere anytime soon...
