You pick!
We don't brag about quick upgrade. We brag about our above average contract (teehee)

If Mr. skypimp wants to be based in ORD Trans States would probably be a good choice. Lots of movement so he'll enjoy being a senior FO while building time towards upgrade minimums.

Says the guy that doesn't work here anymore.

How about we wait a couple of months before we see what will happen here. The deal was signed 1 month ago, envoy usually take longer to get good people on the company.

It's not like I don't have friends there anymore. Low time and inefficient trips, still no new hires, planes still going to other regionals, average to below average contract, should I go on?

I understand your career at Envoy depends on new hires jumping on that sinking ship but come on, have a conscience.

Just do your research.. SkyWest has a long track of stability., but it may be 4+ years to upgrade for a newhire. Eagle is in shambles right now, Commpas, the boat just sailed. You may be to late for quick upgrade, TSA is a huge gamble... Could be good or bad 5 years from now.. Ive flown for 2 of these 4.. All i would say is stay a way from Eagle right now.. If ORD is your goal. SkyWest is your long term bet for that..
