Although we have a few crappy hotels, I would say that 80-90% of our hotels are pretty nice. Just looking at a general list of our hotels we stay at the following:
Holiday Inn, Hyatt, Doubletree, Sheraton, Quality Inn and Suites, Radisson, La Quinta, Courtyard, Hilton, Wyndham, Best Western, Hampton, Crowne Plaza, and a few others.

Oh yeah, and reserve sucks. You have 11 days off and proffer for trips the day before. Live in base!

Pretty nice? Compared to what? Where are the long and short locations?

From talking with guys who've been there for over a decade since you guys switched to an outside vendor for hotels the quality and locations have suffered.

Last I checked AMR travel benefits also included your dependent children, and once qualified up to 13 named guests-buddy passes at a lower pass category.

No, they are not all the same. You'll realize this while at Eagle waiting for your inbound plane and can check schedules, lists for flights, pull releases, check open time, use SABRE and a whole bunch of other crap right from your PDA smartphone.... (AE piggy backed on our AA IT program) while the RAH, PNC, TSA guy next to you is watching the airport status screens to find his flight, or flight tracker on his PDA. Checking his schedule, swapping trips, and a host of other crap just isn't done at most regionals.

Like it or not, in terms of training and infrastructure Eagle is more like a major than other regionals. It also effects their costs

So Eagles a pretty nice regional to be at? All things considered....

They all stink as far as I'm concerned. Eagle just stinks less.

Training at Eagle is the best out there.

how is seniority determined in the classes?

Didn't we already have a thread called " EAGLE LIFE" or was that closed & a new one started with fresh look...... Surprised none of the Eagle guys have brought it up yet & allowed numerous new threads on Eagle to open one after another, with everyone just asking the same basic questions.

This thread has all the information one needs on eagle, the working of eagle over so many years, just that it has not been updated for over 2 months.......

Mods, you can merge this new thread in to the prev one & all the info will be current...... Again, it is just a suggestion & if it is OK with Eagle guys....

First come, first serve..

Age.
