The flowthrough at american eagle has expired. There is no way to get hired at AE and flow through to AA. There are some CAs left at Eagle who were a part of that flowthrough and have seniority #s on AA's seniority list. Their Eagle seniority is not portable to AA. They start at year 1 pay and bidding seniority, but I believe they can keep some stuff like sick time accrued and possibly vacation.
It has been many many years since any AE pilot has moved from AE to AA. And it will be many many more years until the rest go(if any at all go).
I just want to say it again, do not try to get hired at Eagle in hope of someday flowing through to AA!
