So I am still trying to decide where to go tell me if this is correct:
Piedmont:
Pro's
Faster Upgrade 12 - 15 months according to their website
Chance to earn more $$$ by flying extra when possible.
Faster upgrade also means more $$$ sooner
Very short reserve times
Con's
Philadelphia is their only base for the 145. I don't want to commute so I would have to move there and I am not a big fan of Phili.
Bonus is only $16200
Envoy
Pro's
Better bases (I wouldn't mind living on ORD or DFW)
Bonus is $22000
Con's
Long reserve times
Longer upgrade (2.5 years according to Envoy's website)
Horrible schedule (according to the Envoy thread)

PDT will never get 175s. Why would AAG waste millions of dollars a month on training, maintenance, management, and other costs? AAG is wisely moving flying around based on fleet type to reduce costs and be more efficient. In the end, PSA will fly the CRJs, Envoy will fly the EJets, and PDT will fly the 145's.
Once the fuel prices rise again and the market tanks, the 50 seaters will find themselves parked in the desert somewhere.

Right now it is 6 years at Envoy but with 60 to 70 NH a month and 30 Capt leaving a month that number should drop drastically. We are at the beginning of going from stagnation to steady movement. In 6 months to a year, if it is still 6 years upgrade we are in trouble. Common sense says that's not possible for it to stay 6 years as long as we keep hiring pilots and pilots keep flowing to AA.
