Melissa<\/em><\/span>:<\/span><\/div>
My class date for Envoy Air was recalled due to \u00a0COVID. \u00a0I had to not give up when no one would hire pilots. I am finally on the line flying for Envoy and it is an absolute blast!<\/span>\u00a0<\/div><\/div>

It is hands down the best career. It is incredible to be able to travel to amazing places while flying in challenging environments.

Getting to fly to Key West with my family in our Piper Arrow and spend the weekend with them there for my dad\u2019s birthday. Flying over the water and being able to share my love of flying with my family is a memory of a lifetime!<\/p>
