Agree 100%. Nearly all Captains that wanted a line got one and there is plenty of opentime. Even trips that take you out to the West Coast went junior or are in opentime. It will be very interesting to watch.
One thing to be optimistic about, history has proven that nearly everytime the company has slowed hiring or tried to cut cost with schedules, it has resulted in a Greenslip party. The A350 being the latest example.
