The vaccine will be available much earlier, possibly by year end to those with comorbidities and those at risk. Afterward, it will be widely distributed in the 2nd quarter of 2021. This, coupled with Covid fatigue in the population and the loosening of local, state, national and finally international restrictions will occur in the 2nd quarter of 2021 and will open up even further as the year progresses. I fully expect 80% of 2019 TSA numbers in July 2021 and holding steady with incremental increases. And American Airlines is poised to come out of this in mid 2021 and put the other legacies in the rear view with the plan they have been executing over the past several months.

To answer the original question. Yes, a WO is exactly where you want to be. See the example above about the 3 at risk carriers who no longer operate. Envoy offers the best of all worlds. You never have to worry about interviewing again. Why do you think all aspiring CFIs who have the proper creds go to a pipeline university? It's for an American Airlines career.
