Any "Latest & Greatest" about Endeavor?
There was memo 18-01 in the vacancy tab that clearly says the ATL growth was not gonna happen as fast as they orginally planned due to EV consolidating all their flying in ATL as they wind down their Delta flying. So we have 16 lines of flying for summer planned and it should be fully grown in Fall with 20 lines of flying.

Even though we’re getting the last 900, it’s going to LGA, not ATL. This is what happened when we got the EV 900s:
The 900 for EV that was sent to us was replaced in ATL by one of their 700s that was send down there from LGA. When we got that plane back online, it was sent to LGA to replace their 700. As we got more and more 900s, they were sent to LGA to replace all of their 700s so they could all be moved to ATL.
Then as the OO 175SCs come on slowly, they’ll replace us in LGA and that 900 will go from LGA to ATL to replace an EV 700 which will be parked. So we will slowly be shifting flying from LGA to ATL until all of OO’s 175SCs are here and all of the EV 700s are parked.

Also ATL will be a lot closer to on par with NY...if you include the 200 flying which NY has very little of (about 25 departures per day total between JFK/LGA) and ATL has a lot (about 65 departures per day).

You don’t understand. The point is that Expressjet wanted their last base to be Atlanta. The initial plan is that we replace the EV 900s (ATL) and SkyWest replaces the EV 700s (LGA). If that plan was followed, their ATL base would be done next month and everybody would be LGA based through November when the last 700 is parked.

Who said everyone needs training. If staying in same seat/aircraft and just changing base, 18-03 players can move 1 July. Thought we were ramping up ATL ops this summer. Guess not.
On a parallel note, no 900 FO TDYS to ATL next month. First time that has happened since Nov. put the two together and we ain’t growing as fast in ATL as first told.

New hires are going NYC 900 because those are the only spots left from 18-02 for 900 FO. No conspiracy - just the company following part of the contract. I wish they would follow the entire contract!

The company can only TDY 3 months in a row into a base/plane/seat and then they have to do something different for 1 month ie TDY 900CAs out of Atlanta. I expect FO TDY from NYC to ATL to start back in July.

But if they’re planning to start TDYing down to ATL again in July, why not just open some vacancies down there in July? Seems cheaper for the company than constant TDYs.

Just a thought but if they’re TDY’ing ATL 900 CAs up to NYC while simultaneously not TDY’ing NYC 900 FOs to ATL, maybe they’re building some more ATL flying into the NYC pairings for June.

My thoughts exactly. Not every vacancy is not gonna be some big brand shift of movement in the company. We do have new hires coming aboard still in case people forgot.

What's interesting is it appears they have lowered the minimums to 950 hours for even the 900 CA positions which wasn't the case on 18-02. Anyone have any data on how many CA qualified FOs we even have? Because it seems they're getting even more desperate for CAs.
I'm hoping the 12 NYC 200 CA spots go to new hires wanting to jump into the left seat right away, and I don't get a bunch of guys above me deciding to upgrade all of a sudden taking the 33 900 spots and getting stuck with a seat lock in that hot underpowered bucket for bolts for a year.
