They have, and they will. It isn't a plus, but the more time that passes (especially if you have been under random drug testing anyway), the less it will matter.
Yes I realize majors have hired people with blemished pasts, nobody is perfect. I agree with you, as time passes it could be different. The majors have a huge depth of candidates that are well qualified. The desperation level hasn't been reached for major airlines yet, may in 15-20 years that changes.
