I know at least one that isn't for sure- just got hired on at Atlas. As for many of the others- I'm betting several of them chase after more expat work in the orient.
This summer is still going to be a disaster, staffing wise. I'm expecting SkyWest Inc. to cancel more flying on the DAL side than anything else. Watch them protect the AA stuff and make that the priority. With DAL trying to cut our rates, and SkyWest needing an "out", I bet new AA flying becomes the priority, and sound performance there sets us up for the growth. If DAL won't pay the bills, maybe AA will?
