3. AA's flow throughs, and recallees, are older than the UA/DL OTS new hires. That's generating fewer blockers at AA and will generate a secondary retirement induced seniority advancement as the flow throughs, and recalllees, age out before the UA/DL OTS new hires do.
I can't speak for the overall numbers. Personally I know two that quit and went to work at United and one to FedEx. Another that didn't show up to class because he went to Delta. I think we can all agree that the best generic advice to stay at the first major airline, switching in general doesn't work out. It did for the 89 hires at US Air so there are exceptions.
