Nice to see the bump and movement in the right direction for you guys.
I recently visited job fair and had a phone screen with one of the captains/recruiters.
I enjoyed the conversations and I liked the folks I have interacted with as they seemed "on the level" about pros and cons. I found a lot to like about what I heard (great flying, decent pay, great crews/equipment, good advancement opportunities and a management that sounds interested in making it an attractive place to hang around for the long term).
The 8/6 schedule is daunting, however. It sounds like a 7/7 just ain't going to happen. OK....
For me, if the vacation time schedule was improved, the 8/6 would be far more attractive. Man, would love to see 2 weeks vacation offered at year two. 3 weeks at year 5. Then, it would be a super appealing opportunity.
Anyone there see a glimmer of hope in this regard?
