How about Spirit, Jet Blue, or Frontier?

everybody else is in disagreement with your comprehension of what was said. Either EVERYBODY else is wrong; or you are.

I've heard the lateral move can be seen multiple different ways. Some don't care, some do. Who cares anyway, because doing what's best for you and your family should be your top priority. The legacies will be needing to hire so many that I can't imagine a lateral move or two will be a show stopper over the next 10 years.

I'm sure you will agree and it was probably just an oversight on your part, but people need to be armed with current and accurate information, right?
More misrepresntations from you

currently pilots who have been on property for 16 years ar flowing. AA has only been hiring for roughly 6-7 of those 16 years.

saying its a 16 year flow is misleading at best, like most of your posts.

9-11 killed hiring and initiated the lost decade. The mainline retirements over the next decade should keep the flow running pretty much as they've planned. sorry to burst your bubble.

you also had AMR running the show back then who fought tooth and nail to send as few as possible for any reason they could think of; as opposed to AAG who has sent 68% this year alone even though they're only required to send 50%. Over 500 now since 2013 have gone to AA from Envoy.

Want to talk bad about Envoy, talk about our crappy management that has made work life here probably the worst in the FFD industry.... but don't talk crap about a flow that for the past 5 years is actually working better than agreed.

Mr. Bill Kennedy, Tuesday June 23rd, 2015 - "United doesn't care about chasing PIC unless sacrifice home or family life".

FWIW before I quit the industry I went to a United Open House event. The HR woman I spoke with flat told me to leave Envoy and get PIC time. Some like Cujo/Mason may say I'm making it up but I have nothing to gain by doing so.

Yes I am. Again I'll ask you. Which part.

That makes sense. Since when has it become less helpful for long term career goals to be PIC in any airplane? Flow through may be great but at the end of the day, getting experience as Pilot in Command is worthy of hire anywhere, including American Airlines.
