Excuse me if I have this confused, but isn’t Envoy the place that is hiring DEC captains and even “Near DEC” (defined as anyone with over five hundred hours of 121 time) captains because the FOs are too unmotivated to upgrade? They think they are just going to hang out as senior FOs flying the senior lines until they flow to American.

I think I’d rather get in, get my 121 time, upgrade, and then move on, personally.

Being wholly owned doesn’t mean you are bulletproof. Compass was wholly owned by Delta at one time, just as Envoy is currently owned by American. But there are as many American Eagle flights being flown by non-wholly owned operators as there are by the wholly owned. They don’t actually NEED Envoy, or to have flow.

All regionals are expendable.
