Wouldn't surprise me to see a bunch of Mesa guys looking to bail as the writing is on the wall there and making a move early vs. late, might be best.
until places like Atlas, Spirit, Virgin, and even corporate and other 135 places start hiring again, along with some at Delta and United. Lateral moves will not be the only option for most this time next year, most will have vertical options, and people moving around will only feed into the hiring binge at the bottom, which is going to be very dry, just like the last 3 times, and this time with an ATP a hard requirement.
