Why would you go to an airline that is actively shrinking? I wouldn't be surprised if more than half of the people leaving each month are FO's. These guys would upgrade, and flow to AA before you, and they realize they're better off elsewhere. Do you know something that they don't? TSA and Compass have a much faster upgrade; maybe 18 months.

Maybe some people are thinking long term. If the pilot shortage develops as many are expecting, being at a wholly owned carrier will be benificial. looking at psa's grand interview it will only be 16 years to get an interview and growing monthly as they hire 60 and interview 4.

Another reason why nobody should come to the real eagle. Rick Wilson who is in charge of creating the lines is either incompetint or an idiot. Perhaps both. The lines have been terrible since the holidays with no end in sight. 95% or so of them in Dfw are 4 days less than 19 hrs and uncommutable. Not an exaggeration here. Tell your friends how valuable quality of life is and how good management is responsive to good suggestions

From: Hoping for any position
Hey everyone, just trying to figure where to go. I've read all of this thread and just looking for the most current info, thanks.
What is the current junior base?
How likely is DFW out of training?
How long on reserve?

Basically 2 bases left with NY all but gone, so I'd say you have a nearly 50/50 chance of DFW. Reserve will be in the neighborhood of 3-4 years, no exaggeration.

I dont know how many but here is a report from one in training about the hotel -----We welcome you to envoy the crap house.
Currently in DFW for training. I tried to submit a pipeline yesterday on the ENY ALPA site however the link was broken.
The hotel is terrible.
- I waited 2 hrs at DFW airport to be picked up and brought to hotel.
- While I was asleep, a guy walks into my room. I tried to call the front desk but the room phone was inop. The dude that walked in claims it was his room because the front desk issued him the key. I called the front desk with my cell phone and they were clueless to what was going on. After 15 minutes it was sorted out.
-Rude Staff
- Got back from class at 3:00PM and room had not been cleaned.
- No breakfast. Shuttle to HQ leaves at 6:30. Class starts at 7:00. HQ cafe opens at 7:00. No food in my stomach until 12:30PM. No snaking allowed in classrooms, just drinks
