NAI has been operating since 2014, or for the better part of 4 years. Yet, U.S. carriers continue to hire in droves... and will continue for the foreseeable future... especially with the retirements on the horizon.

As a side... I’ve yet to read published articles Op Eds, or view, CNN, FOX, MSNBC, or CNBC for that matter pilots, picketing their airlines, or appearing on the “Hill” giving testimony relating to perceived potential damage to their careers, with the outsourcing flights to foreign operators by their own airlines.

The big 3 out source jobs, with other carriers, in the name of code sharing. Share the study by ALPA showing the number of jobs lost, given away, or deprived from this Code Sharing business model.

Mose consumers choose a service provider that will provide the best service for the money paid. NAI will continue to provide low fares until the day investors say “Enough is Enough!”. Consumers will continue to fly NAI until the day other service providers pony up with adequate service commensurate with the fares paid.

So… how about brainstorm with sales, and management as to how your carrier can draw the market share away from NAI. Plead your case to management as to why outsourcing jobs, in the name of code sharing, is detrimental to the growth, moral, and overall pride.

After all, whose job is safe with cheaper labor available from both sides of the pond... even with NAI in the mix? Who knows... a NAI/DAL or AA, or even UAL may be coming to an airport near you.
