my mistake, I misread that and thought he was talking about travel on delta. Yes, you both are correct I believe the waiting period is ~6 months

How long is the current contract with Delta? How long is the new contract for with AA? And does Transtates Holdings own any of these aircraft?

Delta owns 42
American (when finished) owns 20

TSA owns Compass and nothing more.

Don't remember contract length.

I think the AA one is for 5 or 6 years? No idea about the Delta contract? Just curious what the future looks like for Compass.

AA is 6 years. Delta contract is good through 2020, I believe, but not certain. Management is always trying to get more flying, which is laughable at this point, because it will be tough to staff everything we have on our plate now.

If you build it, they will come...
Their experiment at TSA is proof. Announce more planes, and the junior FOs flock!! Then again, Compass had a different theory for a while that's been working: make a good decent place to work with a good contract and people will choose you.

I'm optimistic. Compass has been like night and day from envoy. Best move I could have made

+1. I walked away from Endeavor with 6.5 yrs seniority. I was 50% relative and a capt prior to the 3-way merger and dropped to 80% with the ISL. After 1.5-2yrs I was down to 90% relative. Going to Compass was nerve racking to say the least. The company is night and day compared to Endeavor, the way your treated, the chief pilots are pro pilot and not pro mgmt. Just finished IOE and looking at upgrading in June/July. There's even a chance of street Capts later this summer. I know after my class there is hardly any prior 121 guys. So even getting in now will still result in a fast upgrade. And as a new hire you will be able to hold LAX from the start and SEA/MSP will be easy to hold within a couple of months, possibly even before training is finished with so much movement happening this year.
