And why would OO prefer an aging CRJ fleet that they don't own versus new EJets that they do? OO's biggest security measure in this market is that they own their lift, mainlines can choose to shift flying to other operators but in order to do so with OO they not only have to secure an alternate operator but also acquire metal.

Out of sheer curiosity, does anyone know if endeavor actually checks employment references? Been asked by someone to be a reference and I haven't received any calls. It's been weeks. . .

Thanks.

They didn’t call my references. I imagine the contacting of references is on a “as needed” basis...

Hey y'all, I am looking to make the switch to Endeavor but had a few questions. Out of curiosity what does Holiday Pay, and Duty and Trip RIG look like?

We don’t have any of this. The closest thing to a trip rig is a guaranteed 25 hours of pay credit for a 5 day trip. That’s about it. Otherwise you’re looking at a min day pay credit of 4 hours.

I didn't think so, but I thought I heard Endeavor might. Guess not.

With regard to the rigs... as was said, we don’t have them. To give you an idea of our schedule quality, average block per duty period across all positions on the 900 (bulk of the fleet) generally runs about 5:20. Average credit a day be a bit higher as far as credit goes due to continuous duty overnights, days protected by min day, deadheads etc. Our leg by leg credit or better pay scheme helps drive up credit as well (especially flying into and out of the congested airports we do). I’d say all in all our schedules are decent to great (anywhere from 11-19 days off, depending on your seniority).
