The last sentence isn’t entirely true. Flow and hiring can happen while pilots are still furloughed. I’m not up on AAs furlough contract but I’d guess it allows a furloughed pilot a window of time to come back on property and once all pilots are back on property that want to be then hiring can resume again. It happened a couple years ago when the cut off date to return and a rush of pilots came back from furlough causing a few months of no flows.

6years of envoy celebration

...yet not a single envoy original pilot has flowed to American. Only eagle original. Meanwhile they sure as hell pushed 5.5year flow to everyone for the last 6years.

yeah if airlines were hiring I probably wouldn't laugh so hard at this post. some people act like they could predict this type of thing.

Well, airlines WERE hiring. Flow was tied to hiring. Most people could beat flow to a major if they worked to make it happen (unless AA was your only choice, of course). There were those that said, "flow is a good backup"... well if hiring stops, so does flow. And that's exactly what happened. Flow is not a backup. It's a crutch. I'd be willing to bet there are a lot of pilots here that would have already moved on to major if it weren't for flow.
