Envoy would be my choice if I knew I wasn’t gonna sit reserve for 8-12 months.

I like Envoy’s bases, non rev bennies, and of course the opportunity to eventually flow, but the reserve time makes me apprehensive

What kind of commute are you going to have at GoJet? How quick can you get to ORD? Pretty sure everything else is going to be either two legs and or low density route.

No reserves means the lineholders are the reserve.

I know the pros and cons are more gay just what you can put on paper. It looks like I would reach 1000 121 TPIC almost a year earlier at GoJet
What am I missing?

I’m coming over from being a military rotor guy, so what QOL issues do you guys say are the most important

Envoy will very likely still be running in 3-4 years. GoJet, who knows. It's not an airline, it's a staffing company.
600TPIC. Then what? You really believe 1000TPIC is when you will suddenly get a call from a major? That's not how it works.
