Not really sure what projected flow times are for current new hires however it is long enough for recruitment to no longer be advertising it online as a Perk. (I think) 7-8yrs.
I respect if you still want to show up to class and be at envoy due to base, if you want to bank on flow (not a great guarantee right now), you like envoy or whatever...
It is just that in my opinion, there are better regionals to start your career at the moment.
We are falling behind.
Those Max CA numbers aren't relevant when they are skewed so badly. You're listing 20 year CA rates at Republic. Not very relevant, is it?
By the time you realistically flow (8 years), difference in CA pay is 83/hr vs 93/hr. Peanuts.
And if you add the bonus to the FO rates, the difference isn't that big.
Getting hired a year ahead from your peers would wipe any difference in regional pay. If you're in your 20's with the usual profile, that probably is worth the shot. But that depends on your risk tolerance.
Republic has great work rules, rigs etc. That's where the difference is.
