So no, to me it wouldn't appear to be "apples and oranges".
Fair enough. I didn't know PSA's SAP has fallen apart. Envoy's trip trade has seemed to work for me, well, at least most of the time. I don't always get my first choice trade, but I finagle it until I find something that works. Sometimes trading the same trip more than once. You just have to know how to use it.

Looking at pass rider, I'm trying to see what goes into dfw and it includes dal in with the results. Do you disregard those flights, or is there a shuttle or something that one could use to get from dal into dfw? Looks like 15 total from BNA to Dallas, but 6 of them show arriving into DAL. Thanks

You're seriously going to ask this guy a question about envoy? Word of advise..don't. His stated goal is to see it fail, so expect the most biased answers possible.

Check out FedEx and UPS Jumpseat Finder too. They might have some flights.

Currently they are hiring in the E-145 and the CRJ 700. After the plans for the CRJs changed we started to send new hires to it.

I believe both in ORD. If you want DFW go to the 145. If you get hired and start training by the end of the year or early 2016, I expect to see some E-175 to the Nh. Current FOs cannot bid jet to jet, so it will go jr.

Yeah Im hoping for the e-175 because Ive heard QOL would be better because the current guys can't bid it. So Im trying to time when I send my app in..

I feel like you've been "ready to move to the regionals" for like a year now. I have seen a lot of your posts to this effect for quite a while now.

Why not just go to the interviews and ask these questions? If you are still 6 months away guess what, the answers are going to be different than they are today. Get your time, go to the interview, ask the pertinent questions.

I don't wanna knock you for doing research and making a good decision but at some point you actually ARE going to have to make a decision instead of getting skewed answers on this website.

Well, here's the thing. If you send your app too late then you might get stuck in the middle or bottom of the list with no movement from the top in that equipment.

Either way there will be movement once the Sr guys in the CRJ and EMJ start upgrading. So you have to think, "do I want to be stuck middle to lower seniority on the E-175? Or do I want to get movement from the top?"

It's all about timing.

I understand. I have been to one interview, and would like to interview possibly with Envoy, or a few more. If in fact the best QOL and schedules at Envoy will be on the 170, I dont want to interview and be offered a class, then have to say well, do I take it or try to put it off in hopes of getting the 170..I meet the mins to these companies, so Im trying to not shotgun them to everyone, and be a little more specific to whom I apply with.
