I wasn't and I doubt he is either. The flow is a nice thing to have in your back pocket just in case you're unable to get hired at a different legacy. Those jobs are incredibly competitive and it's not guaranteed that anyone will even get an interview much less the job offer.

A flow shouldn't be anyone's plan A, but to know you have something waiting for you definitely gives piece of mind.

A flow is a career safety net, it also keeps a steady flow of employees coming in below you. When faced with what regional to go to, you should always select the airline with the flow.

Unfortunately not enough people here at Envoy gave the flow enough credit last time around.

Most of them realize now they under-estimated a flow through to AA and over-estimated other Regional's ability to staff.

Live and learn.

And buddies: Who said I'm waiting for the flow? A guaranteed job is something to keep in your back pocket. Just ask the all the Eagle guys who are flowing to AA. Many of them haven't updated their logbook since the 90s...let alone done all the other rigmarole needed to get a mainline job such as attend countless career fairs, cough up obscene amounts of money to interview prep companies, etc...

I'm positive that isn't the case. These guys are smart enough to realize that an online forum will be a few of your most vocal hardliners. The opinions stated here are not the majority view on either side of the issue.

An online forum is also a place for your most vocal jellyfish, such as yourself.

Can't answer the hard questions? Why do you ignore my question to you?
