It sounds good that DAL is hiring 600 pilots next year. How many apps? 10,000? That's a 6% shot.
UCAL/AA the same number? That's an 18% shot.
Ask yourself this...would you go all-in in a poker tourney if you only had a 6% shot at getting the card you need?
Those are the same 10,000 applications that are on file with every major and low-cost carrier currently hiring.
