You sir, are a damn liar.

Please find a quote like that from me and I will never post here again.

I'll be waiting for your apology.

This flares up every few years, regional dudes telling girls at the bar they fly for the mainline

Well that's perfectly acceptable, but don't tell that to other pilots. :D

How else are we supposed to pick up chicks then??

But no in all seriousness, only time it's ok is when ppl ask who you work for and explaining, a company that flies for American Eagle is easier to explain then saying Envoy. Because let's be real, 99.9% of the ppl flying in the planes have no clue the planes are Envoy, PSA, Republic, Skywest, etc...

Who else tells people you don’t want to talk to/aren’t in the airline industry that you work for American Eagle? Cause I do that a lot, instead of explaining the whole regional business model.

On topic, this guy was probably a new scrub fresh out of indoc where they tell us to “say we’re AA when jumpseating” because we have to do this w/ the gate agent for CASS purposes. We all know we’re regional paupers unfit to look mainline lords in the eye.

Dear OP. Your gonna need to get over yourself.

I think you right my friend. He need to apologize. They say you AA pilot day one in envoy indoc

True. Mostly over at HQ doing interviews.

Really eye opening.

I am sure it was a young new hire that simply got confused as to what to say, since they are instructed to say that for jump seating issues at the gate.

I always say that I work for Eagle rather than explaining it. When I get someone who says which one and understands that there used to be a real American Eagle then I say Envoy. Sometimes I have to explain how we were named after a crappy US Airways “first class” product and how our name was changed into a brand.
