So yeah the most senior captains whether they're 3 or 10 years are still among the most expensive employees. I assume any kind of flow agreement wouldn't include any FOs. Usually you have to be a captain for a certain amount of time so no FOs would leave in the flow. Again, another given. If you think someone would lateral step over to 9E over a guaranteed flow to fly an A330 you're crazzazzy.
You'd make more first year at 9E than Hawaiian, not to mention the cost of living in Hawaii...so potentially...not everyone cares about a shiny brand new A330, some people actually like making a decent income and having a halfway decent QOL
