Mid day rest is a problem CS tries. EVERYONE this happens to should contact their union rep and if they can’t get it fixed, fatigue it just prior to sign in (don’t call CS prior to fatigue call to complain about it). Really only way to solve the problem.
I commute. A really easy commute though. However, I there is only ONE flight from my hometown after 5pm. I do have two flight options prior to 9am... and 3 prior to 10am (start of RAP2) and 4 prior to 11am (start of standby 2).
But I’m seeing a theme in your posts that others caught on before me... if it’s all good for YOU, nobody else has a reason to complain.
As far as your assertion that it’s been good for you and that story needs to be told, it’d be a lot more palatable if you qualified your stories with “I got lucky, you never know what you’re going to get until you show up for class.”
I've used that qualifier so many times I've lost count already.
That's not the theme. The theme is that Envoy CAN be good for you. I try only to comment when someone posts garbage like "we have the WORST <insert whatever you want here>", painting the whole airline with the same brush. I have no problem if someone complains about the airline not being a fit for their personal situation. But claiming the airline is a dumpster fire because of it is just plain wrong.
