im just saying its pretty risky to leave a nice 5-10 year regional capt slot to come to the uncertainty that is untied
I would suspect, that most of those guys bypassed because they've been on the street for many, many years and have moved to a different stage. Its not CAL or UA...it's life. Either, family, financials, risk tolerance and new careers are the drivers. I know numerous that have moved on and have told me they will not come back at all. Also, the regional survival is dependent upon a major and as fuel prices rise and profitability continues to reduce, they are on the table..
