Excuse me if I have this confused, but isn’t Envoy the place that is hiring DEC captains and even “Near DEC” (defined as anyone with over five hundred hours of 121 time) captains because the FOs are too unmotivated to upgrade? They think they are just going to hang out as senior FOs flying the senior lines until they flow to American.

I think I’d rather get in, get my 121 time, upgrade, and then move on, personally.

Being wholly owned doesn’t mean you are bulletproof. Compass was wholly owned by Delta at one time, just as Envoy is currently owned by American. But there are as many American Eagle flights being flown by non-wholly owned operators as there are by the wholly owned. They don’t actually NEED Envoy, or to have flow.

All regionals are expendable.

In 5-6 months from now there will be another rumor about losing the planes in the next 5-6 months. But he is right...at SOME point in the future MQ will get those planes back. I’m going to say most likely 2021 at the earliest

I think the AA birds are 100% solid ours until 2023,

UNLESS delta drops us or we are acquired.

So, realistically anything could happen to those birds in the next 6-24 months. Because change coming soon for the delta side.

Look out Eaglebots! They’re onto us! 😂

Not that soon, and certainly not within the next 6 months.

Just heard from a SkyWeezy FA that top brass are supposed to make a big announcement in SEA sometime and word around the campfire is that it has to do with CP.

SkyPass merger confirmed

Skywest would probably be stapled to the bottom. So, really, it should be named... no, wait, I don't feel like getting banned today.
