DEC = Direct Entry Captain. Go directly to the left seat if you have 1,000 hrs 121 time.
I think it’ll be a thing after 20-01 is out. Anyone interested will have to be happy with IAH, IAH or IAH only and about 5-6 yrs of reserve. So no more than 11 days off a month (12 on a 31 day month). If that sounds like something you’re interested in, welcome aboard!
Anywhere you apply to be a DEC will be an extended stay on reserve unless there’s explosive growth or a flow to take senior people above you off the list. Envoy’s DEC’s are looking at 1.5 - 3 yrs of reserve, maybe more.
