"This is where I stopped listening"
You keep reading
"Just more recruiter jargon"
My opinion based off numbers
"Don't see any numbers to support 18 month upgrades"
I do.
"Being short fo's doesn't lead to faster upgrades"
It does when they are literally hiring 40-50 per month to become properly staffed again. Guess what, upgrades will resume as they were pre exodus.
"Fleet is not growing"
Yes and no. We shrunk a lot this past year. Retired planes and parked planes for both paint and reduced schedules by AA. The overworked fo's may not have noticed this while semi properly staffed captains were barely flying for a few months. As United becomes fully implemented there will be a growth from where we were this past year. As I understand it we can add more flying for United as well.
"Because everyone else already does"
No one has said that.
