For training and company culture, Expressjet is very good. If you're on the other side of Manhattan then EWR can be a pain to get to (vice versa with JFK/LGA). The value of the cpp remains to be seen but supposedly United hires many xjet'ers in general.

Yeah, that's what I've been told. I trust my friends at xJet, who seem to love it. But just because they like something doesn't mean I wil and vice versa ... Getting to EWR is a real pain for me as I live on Long Island. I'm literaly 20 minutes from JFK haha

Have a few friends here at Endeavor that go to JFK and LGA from Long Island. I'm not sure if Republic still have a JFK base or if it went with the 145s.

Yeah they're advertising 175 out of LGA now, which really wouldn't be too bad. It's a hell of a lot better than commuting to HPN which I do 5 days a week back and forth haha

Oh man, that would get old really fast lol. Either way, JFK/LGA bases should give you a few good options.

I know Endeavor is a great choice for NY. But for that matter, wouldn't Republic be as well? All that said, I believe that in the long run there will be advantages to being at the wholly owned carriers. Think about it: you'd be flying Delta owned aircraft, and Delta already has a rate for said aircraft in their CBA. Now, is Endeavor going to be stapled tomorrow? Probably not. But what does that relationship look like 5 years from now? Who the heck knows.... |
It's really a crap shoot. A good regional today could be a crappy one tomorrow and vice versa. A wholly owned could get comair'ed, but any other regional could also go out of business. It's a hard choice sometimes, but just make a decision with the best information that you have.

The money is probably close, but I believe upgrade at Endeavor is much shorter than RAH at the moment.

Yeah it's a good point. Anyone know if delta planes on flying the CS100's as majnline? Or I wonder if they'd go to endeavor?
Too many seats. |
