On a serious note though, not sure why people are so thrilled about a flow anyway. I mean the way hiring is scheduled to pick up, collectively, with all the mainline companies in the next few years why would you want to wait out your turn in flow through agreement?

Sure people with less time and experience may get hired before you, but on the other hand people with more time and experience may not get hired before you. At the end of the day, it's not only about time and experience.

My biggest complaint with flow through agreements are that crappy management (PNCL) will use them as some type of negotiating capital in a ploy to make pilots think that they are giving them something. At the end of the day, when the mainline companies need pilots they will hire.
