Expect it to be fluid. But at the moment, the most junior FO on the 145 that has been awarded a base transfer to DFW was hired in May and he will be DFW based in January. So roughly 8 months on the 145...for now. And since the 175 hasn't even began operating in ORD yet and FOs cannot bid jet to jet, there have been no FOs on the 175 in DFW that were not hired directly into it.

I would agree. Until AAG decides to raise pay at its WOs, EDV is a hard deal to pass up. EDV's pay and work rules definitely are superior to Envoy. But just keep in mind...having the option to get DFW at some point down the line, even if it does take upwards of a year, sure beats not ever having the option of getting DFW. Commuting blows. EDV beats Envoy as things currently sit in terms of compensation and its pilot contract. But I'd be hesitant to commit to commuting your entire career there when you'd at least have some light at the end of your commuting tunnel at Envoy. If you don't live in an EDV or an Envoy base and would have to commute to either one, I'd say without question go to EDV. But living in an Envoy base changes the equation.

Yes and yes EMB-145 LGA captain displacement is what you will see. Assuming a bid is being run.

ORD on reserve. LGA when a line holder. It seems most statuses are pretty well staffed right now. Also , why everyone is questioning why we are sending min flow.

Question for anyone:
If someone has no 121 time and goes to Envoy with say 1500 hours total, do they still get displaced to Captain once they hit their 1000 121 hours?
Thanks

Go to Envoy. Commuting sucks worse than the better pay you'd get at the other place. Plus when there is not enough people in class, Envoy will give a comparable raise. Probably next year.
