We had a brief talk with Pedro at HQ today. He said a Hawaii base is on the table. Or Fresno. He'll let us know Friday.

He specifically did not say LAX. He did mention Alaska though.

Well if it is Hawaii we better sure as hell be the highest paid regional pilots

And then there are the people who would benefit, as individuals, by all the people above them that go to another base as well.

Just pointing this out. I don’t want it to happen. It will be such a good recruiting tool for Envoy that they will be able to continue to fill classes with those extra bodies under our same miserable contract.
That's only reason LAX is a rumor here, because of the new rtp guys from out there. Not happening

And Envoy used to have a base there. And American has a large hub there. And Envoy has a large ground operation there. And Compass operates a sizable flight operation there with AAG aircraft that were originally scheduled to be Eagle's before we were put in timeout. And their contract ends sometime (although nobody seems to know when exactly.)

I subscribe to the "believe nothing of what you hear and only half of what you see" idea in this industry. And I agree with you that an LA base is not as imminent as it's been for the past 2-5 years of rumors. I think most of it is what people are hoping for, and not based in real facts. But, there is more there than just the RTP thing. I believe the rumor even predates that program.

Eagle used to have a BNA base. I’d love a Nashville base.

Eagle also used to have a San Juan, Puerto Rico base. SJU. Let’s bring that back. I’m going to officially start/revive that rumor.

Someone asked Pedro about SJU specifically today and he said “That’s never happening again.” For what that’s worth.

This is Envoy. Never let facts, logic or reality get in the way of a decision or rumor.
