Yes, exactly. I had 3 years previously as an AMR employee (Flagship Eagle--before it was renamed Envoy). As an old timer, I have less than 10 years left in the 121 world.

I was leaning towards ENDV but I would go to any of the WO' AA carriers but if I get credit of the 3 years for travel benefit purposes towards the 10 years from AA then in the Donald's words-- "it would be huge."!

Well the 145 is in bos this month from mdt... who knows maybe the Syracuse and roc routes will come back.. i doubt it. I see two to three bases.. phl, clt/dca... and possibly a Midwest base..


The awac lose is going to mix things up rapidly

I'd love to see a CLT base, but the vibe I got from a recent conversation with one of the CPs didn't make it seem all too likely, unfortunately. But, who knows.

Unrelated: Single Premium beginning next month for Dash FOs. :-(

Anyone know how current the 121 time has to be to get the additional $5k bonus for signing?

Last 12 months I think.... I could be off a little bit though.

Does AA run enough connections through BOS to make it worth a base for 50 seaters? I always thought that place was barely hanging on and being taken over by Jet Blue? Disclaimer, I'm super ignorant about anything north and east of Philly.

Just got an answer to my questions from the Manager of Pilot Recruitment at Envoy and so I expect it will be the same for PDT and PSA as well.

1. No positive space from overseas. Only from a U.S. city within network of AAG.
2. No credit for previous employment with AAG for the purpose of retiree travel benefits.
