Long Call Reserve
 
On Envoy's website it mentions a 12-hour LCR policy. Does this just apply to Captains or do new FOs also get the 12 hour Reserve rule?

We are not like PSA and Piedmont where I believe the company guarantees this after 250 hours. Last time I checked Envoy had 1 line of Long Call in DFW and none in PHX. Not sure about ORD or MIA but I bet it is only 1 line. It is a recruiting gimmick sadly.

Well that’s a bummer. So many of these hiring pages read like bad advertising.

Great company overall. I just hate how misleading this bullet point is!

The LC is a line you bid for every month. So no, as a new FO you won't get that. Either will be the airport ready stby or RAP (availability period) which gives you 2 hours to be at the airport.
Hope this works,

You'll find your overall experience at Envoy to be much the same. Slick Rick Wilson talks a big game but gives it to you dry and without consent as often as he can.

The last good VP of Flight Ops was JW. Slick Tricky Ricky has never been trustworthy or fair. Neither has most of the leadership over there. Lots of old AMR style managers still there running things. Take G.I. Jane for instance. hasn't got a clue how to run a scheduling department.

Still, compared to places like Mesa and CommutAir, it's the Rolls Royce of regionals. I enjoyed my time there, mostly because of the great crews and coworkers.

Keep up the good fight guys, you're worth it. Always have been too.

Long call question
 
DEC candidate here wondering how long it would take, realistically, to get long call reserve. Live in socal and hoping for PHX eventually. Thanks for any insight.

There has not been a long call line for PHX since its inception. DFW has 1 I think. Not sure about the other bases. Don't base your decision on coming here on Long Call Reserve. RAP 2 in theory would get you from So Cal to PHX in time. It starts at 10am each day. Just know that if you get a RAP2 line it does not mean you can hold that for every day in your reserve block. You could get RAP1 and then quickly convert to Airport Standby.

Accurate answer!!

DFW has 2 LC lines every month.
