Yep this. Ease of commute trumps all else IMO.

This is 100% a middle finger to all current pilots, update the apps and get the F out

Envoy no longer promises a # of years to flow on their website or recruiting material? Did the lawyers finally realize recruiting has been lying this whole time?

Then again, how many current pilots at Envoy have received a bonus? Not saying it was right then and it still isn’t. If Envoy, previously Eagle, took care of the pilots they already have, they wouldn’t run as many off as soon as they do and they wouldn’t have to worry as much about new hires.

Currently mulling regional offers.

I'm not chasing metal or pay at this stage in my career, and I am not putting any eggs into the flow basket or even glancing at the signing bonus that EVY is offering.

What are the odds of a new hire in the 145 getting based in Dallas, fresh out of class? What's the seniority in each base? I can't seem to find an up-to-date list of Junior FO bases.

Thanks

But our fleet makeup and bases are different now so I don’t know how closely post COVID movement will look like pre-COVID movement.

Last I saw on here the first class of all new hires is supposed to be late August. Cadets will get first pick of NEW HIRES, but the few cadets getting classes now are behind those current employees returning. Don’t know what the projections are for time to get a class date and there are probably quite a few in the pool, so things can change.

Thanks I'll do that. My interview group was told to expect a class in Late September or some time in October so I'm hoping that holds true. Beats waiting till February for SKW
