We are not hiring 60+ a month yet.
We do not have a flow.
We do not have 175s.
New Hires will be on Reserve for a year.
We simply cannot handle massive expansion. Its why we slowed in the first place
Yes, EDV is an ok place to work but it's still a regional.
Now disagree/agree but stop with the personal attacks, it's unbecoming!
1) Correct, we are not hiring 60+ a month, we are hiring 50+ a month. Yes I do know this as I have a few friends in recruitment who have confirmed class sizes of 25 people with 2 classes a month.
2) We never had a flow, always had the DGI so I have no clue why this is some negative thing. Do we as a pilot group want something better, absolutely but the DGI was always in place and you knew that coming in.
3) Who cares that we don't have 175s. Is that our growth plan who knows, maybe it is all CRJs but who cares there is obvious growth plans for us. There would be no reason to be ramping up hiring again and hiring 26 new FTIs if we were not getting airplanes.
4)Reserve time is creeping up right now but still has not hit 1 year in NYC. Reserve time in ATL/MSP definitely is over 1 year. DTW seems to change every month. Yes it is longer than it previously was.
5) We can handle a lot more growth than you probably think. Recruiting is not a problem here and training would be the only backup which can handle roughly 60 a month as it stands today, if they really want us to grow faster all we need is more sims to do it.
I agree we are just a regional, but for just being a regional we are treated extremely well and get paid very well. No we are not Delta and people need to stop thinking we are Delta, not specific to you or if you think that but so many people run around thinking they are Delta. We are Endeavor and we have a great company culture here.
