Poop in one hand and put "possible" in the other. THEN, throw in your management. Let me know which one fills faster.
They have been able to grow at substandard rates but the major retirements at the legacies haven’t quite hit and united even still has furloughs coming back.
Our (UAL) hiring has proven a trickle compared to DAL as well as AAG as far as bodies ADDED to the list. 2018 doesn't look that impressive for UAL either.
Competition for new hires is going to ramp up. I certainly understand if the Jetblue and frontier guys are not impressed but they don’t see the major major industry standard things we got in this deal that we didn’t have and maybe they already have them.
There will ALWAYS been corp/135/regional guys that may not be able to fill out Big6 apps that'll keep coming for a while. We have yet to see the competition "ramp up". We all thought we'd be seeing it NOW at the legacies, we're STILL waiting.....
Take a gander at the AA threads and the new hire makeups as an example.
