I guess there are enough guys disenfranchised with their current company to keep filling up classes!
Ask a 3 or 4 year FO at Expressjet if they want a job at Frontier. The answer will be yes. The big regionals that don't have an automatic flow thru are totally stagnant due to them shrinking as 50 seat RJs get parked. Express jet has an 8 year upgrade still. They have well over 1000 FOs with no upgrade in sight. Why wouldn't they come here?
Add to that guys who just want one of our domiciles, or are coming from 135 operations. I don't think our applicant pool is as dry as you think.
