Everyone coming to Compass knows the risks of coming here, but also the huge potential for reward too, and so far that risk has paid off. Tons of guys have moved on, and even those that haven't get to enjoy lots more seniority in bases than you would anywhere else.

Speaking of vacation in 2018, didn't Compass take away vacations in November/December that year?
Yes they did! So I wasn’t on vacation for the time Delta tried to kill us off! Not once but twice mind you. Seriously the things you hear! They are even laughing about it on the Envoy forum.

Things like this used to keep me up at night. Then I realized it’s out of my control and to just enjoy the ride. No point in stressing out about a rumor or two.

To be fair to Delta.. It was more of a "mercy killing" attempt.

Nope, desk jockey in Tower C. His crystal ball has about a 50% success rate as of late.

Either these guys are trolling for fun or just so sour about their contract problems they’re throwing tantrums here lol. I remember in 2017 when Envoy was “Literally publishing LAX vacancies this fall” according to the Evoy APC y’all need to spend less time wishing fellow pilots misfortune, and more time on your apps.

I think it’s a little of both. I don’t see the AA contract going anywhere anytime soon. The CP/DL contract is also unlikely to end early. G7 is another story.

If I were a CZ captain, I’d be jumping ship to anywhere not lateral. If I were a young FO in my early to mid 20s, I’d go anywhere else. Let me remind CZ that DL tried to squash y’all in 2018 and early 2019 as part of their regional consolidation plan which would have merged you pilots with EDV in accordance with alpa policy.
jesus, this is so speculative it might as well be science fiction.

How would an EDV CP know anything about the AA contract? Ahh you don’t.

I don’t want an LAX base. I’d much rather see the snack baskets continue to thrive at Compass.

And we would rather see higher pay at ENY.
