Why? Envoy pilots are not American pilots. Horizon pilots don't fly for Alaska. Endeavor pilots don't fly for Delta.

And how would this one list work? As an example, could the 20 year Envoy/AE pilot suddenly decide to become a 787 captain at American and outbid everyone with their seniority on that one list? Should that 10-11 year Envoy pilot start at AA at 10-11 year pay? Or would it only apply to furloughs when the one year mainline AA pilot gets furloughed before the brand new, new hire?

This is one of the issues with flows and parent companies, this sense of entitlement that an Envoy pilot should have special privileges over others because they flew for a regional before moving up to mainline. Seems to be a lot of entitlement attitude from the Envoy group (not all of them). Furloughs are a reality with airlines, I'm furloughed right now. Seems you want to take all the reward of moving up to mainline without taking any of the risk. Can't have it both ways.
