I wouldn't get your hopes up. I'm pretty sure it's what 2 more years until pay negotiations come up? Just in January they got 60 pilots on the CRJ out of 2 classes. They don't seem to have troubles hiring people at all.
Is under 2 years still not considered "low" upgrade time? Come on. Also, pay isn't considerably better...bonuses are. Which leads to another argument by itself.
The way I see it is you can take that pay and 1 year upgrade and NY base but is that really the QOL you want? Apparently not to the new pilots that are choosing QOL over a fat bonus. Can't blame them.
