You guys also are totally detached from the fact, that some new hires are enjoying this job, and Envoy is a great fit for them.
This "Envoy's contract with AAG that involves last pick of the scraps" is another fake news "fact" people repeat here. I can't help you if you believe that AAG just posts a bunch of flights available for grabs, and regionals pick them up in some preassigned order, like a pro sports draft.
I'm sure Vasu etc keep saying "oh crap, Skywest took that route, now we can only sell 70 seats on that route".
Is that why we got a good bunch of the super productive daytrip lines for June? Some of them from Mesa. I'm sure the senior guys who can hold them aren't complaining about 18-19 days off and 90+ hours of credit, and home every night.
They are also great picks off P2P (plenty of them available). Not bad to go to work for a turn and credit close to 7-8 hours.
Envoy does pick last from the flight file. I don’t know how else you can explain why we have such lower average credit per day for a trip that most regionals have.
As to the rest, sounds like a lot of 175 bs to me. But that’s alright. EVERYONE gets 175 nowadays, right?
