MIAMIA

Great, thank you so much for the information! And would you mind sharing how’s the schedule for while on reserve?

DragonPhlyy

Mostly 3 on 4 off but with the new quality of life improvements coming with 12 day off minimum, long call reserve and preferential bidding things could change soon for the better.

ignorance is bliss, i wish you well with pbs.

Does Envoy ONLY have long-call reserve? No short-call? No ready?

buddies8

No short, yes ready.
technically 2 hours for short.

Are there long waits for OE at Envoy? Approximately how long to hold a line in DFW or MIA? Upgrade times?

I’m about to transition to the 175 at my regional but I figure if I can get on with Envoy and get paid 2x as much that’s not a bad option. 500 SIC 121 currently.

You mean 4 on 3 off?

NoValueAviator

Reserve is normally 4-5 on to 2-3 off, plus 2 unpredictable junior mans a month for captains (usually at the end of trips) taking you to 5-6 on with 1-2 off. 4 on 2-3 off is fairly standard for lineholders.

pitchattitude

This is much more typical. And as a line holder you can expect a couple of carry over days that further reduce your days off.

Clearly there is someone new shilling for the company.

Brand new account with only these two posts.

Completely inaccurate information.

Need to see some other replies. With the exception of a few day trip lines that go senior, trips are almost exclusively four day. There are VERY few two or three day trips at Envoy that are part of a regular schedule. These are complete exceptions made to make a given line work with days/credit, etc.

There are one, two, three and four day trips in open time, but those are leftovers that get carved out due to training, vacation, mil leave or some other kind of drop.

In open time, anything that’s a day trip goes senior. Any one day or overnight with high credit goes senior in open time as well.

PBS will NOT change the individual trip sequences. There will continue to be almost exclusively four day trips. What WILL help is the application of trip and duty rigs. It MIGHT make for some reduction in low block trips because they will still have to pay more for those inefficient trips anyway, but at least the lower block sequence will credit more.
