Things will have to change with the laws of economics. Either the supply of labor will have to be increased, or the demand of it be lowered. I hope it's a combination of the supply of labor being increased through higher pay/more attractive compensation, and the demand being lowered through more airlines taking flying in house.
Good luck with those 81 seaters American, awfully short sighted!
