The company is getting ready to roll out its plans for 2017, which I've heard includes growing the 50 seat fleet by at least 10 planes, while it replaces 200s with two-class shells one for one starting in the next 18 months. The money is going to be good, I should upgrade within a year, and then the clock starts ticking for my Delta interview. For me, that's a win due to the fact that my phone wasn't exactly ringing from the majors before coming here. I'm excited to see what comes in the next two years!

That's great rumor, but until anything is officially announced, I wouldn't count on any more airplanes. Remember, Delta is scoped out on RJ's, so anything we get comes from somewhere else.

Because with the $23g they are still shy of their earnings by another 10-15 grand. Is there some secret payment the senior guys get I'm unaware of?

We are all short still. Not just them. So yes we all get the same. That's what I'm getting at. We all lost the same in bankruptcy.

JD & RE said this very thing. 14 200's coming from undisclosed carrier in 2017 and swapped for 2 class in 2018, also from another carrier. Obviously not an official announcement, but a good source.

That is correct...heard the same thing from R.E. Nothing absolutely confirmed..but he was very confident that in the next 12 months or so, we'd be flying more airplanes (probably from another carrier) if we can staff them. The DAL MSP Chief Pilot also came and talked in class for a while. DAL is very happy about our performance and operation as a whole. If we can fly the planes (fill the seats), they will give us airplanes. Also just heard, if we can't fill the left seats quick, will be hiring street CA very soon.

Anyone can give input on schedules at Endeavor? Lots of 3-4 days out of KLGA and KJFK or is there a chance to pick up 1-2 day trips? Also, do you ever end up in base during the 3-4 day trip?

Maybe it is Delta telling mgmt and then changing their mind. Regardless of the reason, don't make a decision to come to Endeavor based on rumors. They usually end up being just that. Go with the facts - Endeavor has enough great stuff without choosing it based on rumors.

The captaind took a nearly $40 an hour pay cut. If FOs had taken a $40 an hour pay cut we would have made $6 an hour.

What in the hot hell are you talking about farmlover?
