Envoy is introducing the Pilot Retention and Bonus Program for pilots to earn up to $150,000 in retention compensation and captain bonuses. This program is designed to reward pilots for their efforts and incentivize all pilots to continue their careers at Envoy or begin a new chapter at American Airlines. And with an industry leading flow-through agreement to American, Envoy pilots have a direct path to a mainline flying career, with no additional interview required.
In addition, as air travel continues to increase, Envoy is prepared to meet the demand by relaunching its pilot training and, as soon as September, Envoy pilots will begin to flow again to American Airlines.
How does the program work?
The Pilot Retention and Bonus Program will allow pilots to accrue up to $150,000. Here’s the math; once the pilot upgrades to regional captain they will receive the first $30,000 bonus. Then, once a pilot flows to American, they will receive a $70,000 bonus plus up to $50,000 in bonuses. If they choose to stay with Envoy and bypass flow, the remaining $120,000 will be paid out in three annual installments.
This program is in addition to the $15,000 signing bonus Envoy is offering new pilots today and will make it even more attractive for candidates who want to join the Envoy team. The program will also be retroactive to include all current pilots at Envoy and new hires through 2022.
