I don't think that we have to worry about any kind of a merger with anyone. ExpressJet is currently shedding airframes on their ERJ side to commutair who is hiring street captains and they don't have to worry about any kind of pilots coming over from expressjet unless they wanna start at the bottom. I guess same deal could be great for endeavor if they just transfer the planes over to us.
The thought of an ATL base would be awesome for an Orlando person. After making my comparison, I've decided I'm going to make Endeavor my 1st choice. Here's hoping I get a CJO.
My favorite was late ready reserve in DTW a few years back on Thanksgiving night. No flights after 4pm and no other crewmembers in the airport. Questioned them on the need for a solo ready reserve and they claimed they might need to deadhead me somewhere. When I asked how this could happen when there were no other flights they said they might charter a learjet. Didn't happen.
If you ask too many questions your head will hurt.
You went home to be with the family instead of hanging out alone at the airport, right?
Unless, of course one does not yet have the requisite 1000 of 121 time to move up. Flight time IS a factor for some...

Or commute to NYC with 17-18 days off a month. Flight time isn't a factor, just QOL.
