Reserve in New York will be a year for new hires. New York is expensive and you are responsible for two airports. Still no Lyft account we’ve been told is coming. Wait until you have to sit in the LGA crewroom for eight hours from 5am and not get to fly.
Keep in mind all these announcements can and will change. History has a way of repeating itself ie; Comair and Express Jet.
The 175 rumor has been around for years. The day before they were coming they were cancelled.
I think the big D pilots, as other major airlines, are getting tired of all these regional jets flying around. As contracts come up, those pilots will have a bigger say in regional jet operations.
Honestly, if the D is your goal you may be better off on the outside. IMHO, the propel project tells us what the D thinks of us but that’s maybe just me. Lots of victims of the DGI and SSP.
Only three companies have a guaranteed flow AND it’s working fine. I’d go to one of those first then the Big U regionals.
No, EDV is not the worst but, it just doesn’t offer what others do. The pay scales are ok but they needed to pay that to keep people in NY.
50$ an hour x 75 is low for NY.
In summary, if you’re going to fly for the regionals get the most you can out of it. You don’t have to stay at an AA wholly owned but you will get a flow if you do.
Best of luck to all.
I’m not sure if you have any idea what you’re talking about or just sour grapes. A new hire will not spend a year on rsv in NY. The goal is to hire 60 pilots a month. Delta is going to replace RJ’s in NY with new cs100’s.
The Union is meeting with Delta about guaranteed career progression. Pay and QOL are much better at Endeavor than other wholly owned. 1st year pay is $60k.
How do you know how happy AA is with their flows, you don’t.
Double no’s are not victims they were unlucky, possibly Unprepared or have your attitude.
