Endeavor is opening a huge operation in NYC(JFK and LGA) on the 900. It will be the most junior bases for us. Separate bases as of now. Hell new hires are rumored to be getting delta numbers here shortly. If you don't mind the horrible pay, this place wouldn't be a bad place for someone who actually wants NYC. You'll gain seniority quickly and have good QOL. good luck

He also said Delta was worried we at Eagle would pass our concessionary deal and that the bottom of Endeavour's list would bail to Eagle chasing that elusive flow.

Supposedly Endeavor is 'working on something' to attract new hires. No one here will stand for a flow only for new hires. That'd go nuclear fast. As someone who lives in NY also, the 9E New York bases are already very junior and will continue to get moreso. I may actually be able to hold a line again here by fall if the trend continues. Latest class that received base assignments will all be JFK-900 FOs. NY appears as if it will be VERY junior for the foreseeable future. Again if you don't mind the lower pay living in base will trump that compared to a commute. Just my .02.

I could see that happening. On the Delta side Delta want no 50 seaters operating in NYC to cater to business travelers. The Eagle NYC CP said to me once on our jumpseat "Where Delta goes American will follow."

This unfortunately is a different rumor he is addressing versus the April Fool's joke. It's gained some traction too for the fact that Delta is doing the screening for new hires. Because of this, they can offer jobs to them at Delta after an indentured servitude to Endeavor and that would solve the hiring problem. Those on property prior to DAL taking over hiring are stuck with the SSP. That way everyone is screened prior to going to DAL. Again just a rumor...
