Wow, saw another post about losing United flying to other regionals and now American flying being given to Envoy in LGA and MIA (obviously rumors and speculation at this point from Uncles (lol) but still). No guaranteed interviews, flows or any real connection to a larger carrier. Things are starting to look a little dicey at republic

Come to Envoy! We have an 8 year indentured servitude to AA! The greatest QOL and industry trailing pay! Then, after you serve your prison sentence, you get to go to the legacy that’s trying it’s best to be an LCC!

Bottom line is Republic (or any regional for that matter) can’t protect the flying they do for their partners. Sure, rpa has contracts but anything can change with the swipe of a pen.

If American decides they want envoy 175s in LGA it’ll happen. I doubt it’ll happen any time soon but that’s just the way the industry is moving.

Envoy has the worst pilot group amongst all the regionals. Like a group of salivating pit bulls waiting to take everyone’s flying, because you know, it was ALL of their flying at one time.

The original American Eagle is gone brothers, give it up.

HERE ARE THE FACTS:

Daily LGA AA departures:

Jan 2020: 56
Jan 2019: 43
Jan 2018: 44
Jan 2017: 43

Looks to me like quite the OPPOSITE of losing flying.

It would force management to focus on something other than the northeast. And the whole “we’re in the northeast because we’re the best at it and that’s where our partners want us” is complete BS. It’s because it’s CHEAP. Management backed themselves in to a corner by opening massive maintenance hubs all within a couple hundred miles of each other. That’s why we can’t consistently expand west, it’s a nightmare logistically and RPA is too cheap to open a larger maintenance hub west of the Mississippi. Management runs this freaking multi-billion dollar airline like a mom and pop show.
