That being said, you should ask questions about what is important to you. Are you a potential commuter? Ask how commutable the schedules are. Do you want money? Ask if overtime flying is available. Do you want days off? Ask about junior manning, how often it happens. Ask how many days off an average line has. Do you want to upgrade soon? Ask about when people are actually upgrading right now.

Nobody can tell you want questions to ask, because only you know what's really important to you. Different things are important to different people. For example, I'm a commuter, so commutability of the schedule is important to me. I didn't spend much time on reserve, so I don't really care about reserve rules. If you're going to a place with long reserve, or if you are interested in living in base and bidding reserve on purpose, reserve rules might be really important to you.

If you're looking for industry insights as to what regional is about to get the next contract or lose flying, the recruiters act like they know, but generally don't know.
I don't see why a commuter would consider Envoy.
