I've said it before. Even junior LCC guys may be looking at Envoy now with things continuing to improve daily and most of all, for the one interview and express flow to American.



Exciting times at Envoy.


Junior LCC?

Not an effing chance.

"Yeah, jetBlue ain't panning out. Think I'll go back to envoy and get my "guaranteed" job at AA in 6ish years."

Said no one ever.

Last relevant flow was this.

Hired AA: 11/15/16
Hired EGL: 10/16/00

#655 out of 824 has flowed as of the end of NOV if anyone was wondering out there in internet land


The only guy in the 30th NOV class had a much older hire date at ENY

I just flew with an FO from that time frame leaving for Spirit. They let him delay his class to receive his retention bonus here right before he resigns. Said he couldn't stand the schedules here any more.

If a Spirit, Allegiant, Jetblue or Frontier guy came to Envoy, they just guaranteed themselves a spot at American while they can continue to apply at legacy carriers. It's a no brainier.
There are no guarantees in life, even less so in the airlines. I agree it is very likely they will have a job at AA, but yes, you are still "salesy," aka dishonest.

Welcome aboard, I truly hope things work out for you here.

Update: in a move that surprises exactly nobody, now instead of 330 next year Rick Wilson amended it to "close to 330."

Flow. One interview and then a major. Two guys I know from the 2010/2011 timeframe went to Spirit and Jetblue respectively.
They were likely just a couple of years from AA when they left. Now, they are on the outside looking in. A new hire today will likely will pass them in a terminal somewhere in 6 years wearing an AA uniform while they are desperately trying to get hired at a legacy.

Anyone from the Dec19th class able to use their travel benefits? It's a shame that they brought us in for two days on the beliefs that all benefits would be available over the holidays.
