Envoy 2019
 

Well here comes 2019!!! It seems that it is time for a new Envoy thread.

The Good The Bad and The Ugly.

Good luck to all you 145 guys that were hired all at the same time last fall and have been stuck on reserve your first year. I hope many of you have been able to hold a line by now.

Congrats to the guys flowing and it looks like the "Protected Pilot" guys will all be flowing this year dropping the flow time to around seven years.

Still no news on a new reserve system.

Still doing forced upgrades.

Still flying the CRJ.

Good luck to you all.

Let's start off with a dumb question:

I haven't submitted an RF 100C PART in a while (partial sequence OT pickup). Is CS allowed to award only a portion of the request? For example I requested 4 legs from a sequence in open time and I only get assigned the first 2.

No. it is all or nothing you submitted.

I tried to jumpseat from a Mexican city back to DFW recently but thr gate agents denied the jumpseat even after clearing with the captain. This was on Envoy. I couldnt find anything in FM1 that says we’re not allowed. Anyone know for a fact if this isnt allowed? Thx

Hi all,

I'm living in DFW and have a class date with another regional but thinking about interviewing with Envoy. Not to sound like the millennial shiny jet chaser but what are the odds a non-cadet can get the E175 as a new hire? According to other threads, I can get DFW pretty quickly. Will this be the same this Fall you think? Not having to commute would be a plus. Training would also be a 20 minute drive every day. If I get the E135/145 I'll be up in New York on reserve forever when I can hold a line at the other airline in a few months up there.

Thanks

2019: the year we see LAX again, more 175’s, the end of forced upgrades, and new reserve rules?

It’s not in FM1 but it is allowed. If you know the JS Comittee Chairman you can email him for a reference.

DFW
 

I have an Envoy FO interview coming up. how likely am I to get assigned DFW right away?

There are SOOO many variables that can affect this.

How old are you? How old will everyone in your class be? How many cadets are there? When do you start and what aircraft/base combinations will be available?

You can only answer the first question and the answers to all the others are moving targets. Read back in the most recent posts and you will have as good of answer as anyone can give you.

175 deliveries should continue to increase those training slots. No way to know if you will get one and whether DFW will be available. If you get the 175, should be less than three months. If you end up on the 145 probably 9-12 months.
