there is no reason a OO captain under 5 years shouldn't be looking at Envoy, as a direct entry CA.!! If there doing that thing.. double the pay, and flow back up..

AA W/O’s would be nuts to hire any OO, YX, or Mesa pilots. That is just robbing pilots from current “Eagle” airplanes. These folks are going to come from Endeavor & Aviate Regionals

Keep their own regional lift going and hire from outside to deplete other carriers' lift. Win - Win for AA.
This is probably the only industry I can think of where the employees who represent the brand day to day are not the clear favorite to be promoted. Just business I guess but very odd.
They will literally do anything to not issue a seniority number which would solve the problem over night.

This is a relatively short term problem. In t8 months or so things will look much different. AA recognizes the need to hang on to the regional model but the temporary nature of much of this increase is because they don’t want to destroy the model and do anything permanent to change it.

Specifically what? There are bonuses for new hires and bonuses for captains. Do you have the qualifying time to become captain? Right now Envoy still isn’t at the point they are hiring DECs. I believe all the bonuses incur a 24 month commitment.

It would be beneficial to the AA network if the WO poached pilots from oo yx or Mesa. These regional pilots operate Eagle and DAL/UA regional planes. To take a pilot flying 30-50% for Eagle to 100% would not be “nuts”.

Not saying you’re wrong but YX is jointly owned by American, Delta, and United. They are in a strange situation. If American grenades YX they are actually hurting themselves.
