Envoy they would force me to NY for the foreseeable future and it would be a 2 leg commute to rsv. Endeavor has fantastic pay and good schedules. however the entire pipeline from application to IOE is severely clogged right now. Could be looking at a year from now until I’d be on the line. Also possibility of getting stuck in NYC for a while. Skywest sounds like I could easily get a CA seat in ATL. Relatively easy commute. Also sounds like I’d be flying a ton which is my number one reason I’m leaving my current job (not getting enough hours) with starting at third year captain pay plus the 7,500 bonus I’d be about on par with what I make now.
So we’ll see what happens. I think ALoT will change even by mid summer.

should be at the top of your list also. Apply to your top three and interview with who calls. My guess 2 interviews and 1-2 job offers.
They may answer your question for you.

It might be just me, and it might be just circumstantial but I am observing considerable acceleration in appreciation of my seniority number over the past 2 months. I wonder if this is indicative of people exiting at a higher rate or just a surge in mainline hiring? OO may very well be matching this with recruitment, I am not sure but it makes me wonder.
