Any "Latest & Greatest" about Endeavor?
Some of those folks aren't in the know of what's taking place with contract negotiations. Next meeting with the company is on the 24th and maybe we will get an update. I wouldn't anticipate solid news on pay rates as work is being done on smaller ticket items. Which is ok with me. Let's allow time for our hiring to suffer to prove to the company that we need to be at or close to the $25 mark. I think we are still a ways off on seeing some talks on flow. Market and hiring will dictate that need.

I hope classes fall flat and the company has to up the ante.

The company knows this and will up the ante as you say. They won't pay more than they have before they have to. There are a lot of moving parts and plan A,B, and C.
So stay healthy and enjoy the ride.

I'm surprised anyone would choose to come here over an AA wholly owned. If the regional model does fall apart, AA regionals will likely get a staple. Whereas, Delta will almost certainly send us packing. Something to think about.

Yes we don't have a flow. However, 9E isn't a bad place to be. You run the same risk here as you do anywhere else. If this place makes sense for someone, there is no reason for them to not come here. We can all sit here and guess what could happen. What is happening is that this is a good company to be a junior regional FO at. Plain and simple.

Just to play devils advocate, what is to say only one of the AA wholly owned partners gets a stable? And by your logic, then no one should go to OO, YX, C5... really anywhere else.

Loyalty to it's subsidiaries? By whipsawing them to get cheaper rates? Come on, sure they have flow, but don't pretend its anything more than it is.

Exactly. A flow is just a way for AA to control the supply of pilots leaving their regionals. It benefits management more so than their pilots. In the next few years qualified pilots will be much better off in their careers actively pursuing better opportunities than waiting around for a flow.
