I hear a lot of people leave legacies for FedEx. I’m curious as to what Fedex has to offer that a legacy doesn’t. Used to be in law enforcement so it doesn’t matter to me whether I carry boxes or passengers. I want to work for a company that takes care of its pilots. I’ve never met an unhappy Fedex pilot but plenty of legacy pilots who have something to say.
So like I said, just trying to learn more and have a company to shoot for. By the time I flow and gain seniority, it’ll be years before being in base for AA. But I hear a lot of Fedex people commute and say it’s no big deal. Thanks for any info.
Beat advice is to search all the FedEx threads here and gather information. Here's a good starting point:
