Joining Compass!!!
Pumped to be joining the compass family! Start class later this summer. I've appreciated the overall positive attitudes on the compass forums. Was torn between a few regionals but decided on Compass hoping to be home based. I'm a former 121 guy that got out of flying 5 years ago. Looking forward to getting back into the game. Any tips or advice to get ready for training would be appreciated. Side note question - does Compass mix the American and Delta flying or are you usually just on one for all of your trips. Thanks

Individual pairings are supposed to be all Delta, or all American. It's a matter of how you bid and what PBS awards you.

I heard a few things about CZ. Many of you will say I’m full of it but I hope I’m wrong for your sake. Heard Delta met with TSH and TSH wanted way too much to sell CZ off to Delta. No deal was made. Also heard that AA is done with CZ and wil soon transfer those jets to Envoy.

You want more rumors, come on back, I got em. Or just go back a couple years and read historical threads in the forum. They've got lots of hot rumors, and most of them are still good rumors because they haven't happened yet...

Lotsa rumors all the time. I heard that United is going to send flying and aircraft to Compass that they just don't think Mesa will be able to handle. Then there was the rumor that Delta was going to buy and start flying 195-E2s as mainline equipment stapling all the Compass guys to the bottom of their mainline seniority list in order to get around the scope issues.

Cripes, I've shot at and been shot at by people I didn't dislike near as much as some of those 'fellow' pilots clearly hate their new peers. Hopefully tempers will cool before it comes to that.
But rumors? Heck, they are a constant source of entertainment - sort of like whispering messages around the circle at a party to see how the signal to noise ratio gets fouled up.
I say go for it.

As for AA, yeah the planes will probably go to Envoy in the 2020s at some point. We will not lose one plane before that contract is up. Even by that point, we will probably have some contract with UA or something so it won’t matter. The guys who think AA will end our contract early are delusional.
As for th OP, welcome my friend. Hoping to see you on the line soon. The guys here are truly great to work with. As you can tell by our group on here, we just like to have fun. If you ever fly with BobbyLee, get to the gate 15 early and make sure you take all the frosted covered Oreos out of the snack basket. I warned you.
