Oh yea thats right why not just keep shuffling planes around so the pilots chase them. We do not know what will happen at any of these airlines. All we do know is that things change and they can change fast. Some will be for the better some will be for the worse. The ones that are all about being negative about Endeavor you are quick to see the positive changes at your new airline but you can not accept the positive that has happened here now. Is it great no, is there still a lot of risk here yes. But is there risk when you make a lateral move?

Huge risk moving laterally potentially....one has to ask themselves..."as I get close to upgrade, who is going to be my FO?" especially when potentially new FOs think they may have missed the quick upgrade. It'll happen...just watch and then movement at these 'growth regionals' will come to a grinding halt and some get stuck as FOs....AGAIN. Some will get lucky...others will not.

If we want equality for all pilots (like the Union claimed they are doing with this TA) then let's move to an 8 year cap for FOs and captains. Why are we spreading the wealth out equally with this bonus but the pay caps are slanted so heavily toward captains? Let's split up the bonus the same way the pay caps are set up.

If they give me an interview at DL and I get hired, great. If they furlough me, I'll look for another job. Going to another regional for "the quick upgrade time" is only worth it if something else about the switch is also good. For instance, you are from XYZ and that is also the junior base at the new company. Then you have some contingency in your plan. So basically I think that most of us are doing the right thing: going to other regionals where the situation is good for them and maybe a quick upgrade... or staying at 9E if the situation is good (for a few like me) and maybe an upgrade (if all their desperate measures work).
