Pinnacle vs Eagle
 

I received a class date for Pinnacle on August 1st. Just yesterday I received the email from Eagle offering me an interview. Right now I am torn between whether or not to take the interview at Eagle or just decline the offer and keep my focus on Pinnacle for August 1st. I am obviously not going to turn down the offer at Pinnacle, I am looking forward to beginning there in about 2 weeks.

What would you all do? Take the interview at Eagle or decline the offer and focus on Pinnacle?

(I know the answer seems obvious, I am just trying to get some input.)

Take the interview and if offered a job then decide.

Pros-Cons?
Commute? Bases? QOL.

Do the interview at AE. You never know what's gonna happen in this industry. Pinacle may cancel your Aug class date or push it back. If you get a job offer at AE, then it's time to post on APC forums to get opinions!!! ;-)

Stay with Pinnacle. The problem with AE is even though you may interview before your 8/1 class date, you will NOT find out whether or not you got the job until the captains review board happens.... and I don't know how long that's taking these days.

Depending on what you're looking for, I'd go with Pinnacle to be honest.

Go to the interview at Eagle with the attitude that you WANT to be at Eagle. Then if they don't offer you the job or don't offer it fast enough, go to Pinnacle unless there's some overwhelming reason (living in an Eagle base for example) to go to Eagle. A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush, unless you get to have the bird in the hand and still shoot at the bush....

take the interview because of what most the other people said and the extra interview experience. Worst case scenario, you have another airline interview under your belt as experience

Like what said above , I was given the job offer at eagle , then slapped in the face by the interview board and denied. So if timing doesn't work out go with pinnacle.

Both airlines are hiring a ton . Needless to say I think you ll be fine either place you go. Reserve at pinnacle is minimal , so that helps

Plus you can come here And be based in JFK under me !!!!!!! Lol. ;).

That is what they told me 3 years ago...
I was on reserve with 7 or 8 or 9 days off for 2.5 years!

I would like also to know what people think would be the better choice of employment if offered both. I will be applying to regionals within a couple months and would love to know which regional everyone seems to think is better right now.
