Envoy Air, based in Irving, is the carrier’s largest subsidiary and will send more than 300 pilots to American this year. Envoy’s chief executive, Pedro Fábregas, is proud of the constant flow of pilots that come through his airline and make their way to American.
“Pilots come to work for me because in five years, they’re going to be pilots at American,” Fábregas told the Dallas Business Journal in October. “We hire the best of the best. And if American wants to hire the best of the best from me? That’s good. That’s the way it works.”
Despite the constant flow of pilots to the mainline carrier and other regional carriers feeling the pressure from the shortage, Fábregas said Envoy doesn’t have a pilot shortage. There was softness back in 2015 but for the last couple of years, “the classes are full,” he said.

With my $ 2k yearly dues the only thing I want is a monthly seniority list

Wait two weeks and there will be a new seniority list update by the company. They do it every six months and it’s in the pilot contract and it’s much more accurate than Sabre numbers at its publish date.

Seems like for the past 2 years, system bids have been every quarter. Looks like we will miss that pace if we don’t have one in January.
What I don’t get is if we are so short on CA, why miss this bid being on schedule to keep the forced displacements going?
Any ideas the reason, training backed up, no need, waiting on new news for more accurate numbers?
Will February be bigger numbers (CA Seats) since it’s delayed a month?
Maybe they are just too lazy to run it and I’m reading into this too much.
