What about with the regionals? Are there any specific companies that are known for early flexibility (mainly curious about Piedmont, Republic, Air Wisconsin @PHL)?
Old buddy just got hired by Piedmont and they seemed very open to giving in to his demands (he basically told them he needed to be based in PHL and they said no problem). Never got a chance to ask him about scheduling flexibility.
Virtually zero schedule flexibility at Piedmont.
Air Wisconsin isn’t PHL based.
Republic is your best bet if you want schedule flexibility at the regional and want to be able to be hired at AA.
