We will have 4200 by the end of the year and projected to hire 400-500 next year.
“Sprinkling of international”? Might want to take a look at the JB route map again. 40 destinations outside the lower 48.

You want to split hairs over less than a 1000 pilot difference? UAL has 2000 less than DAL and almost 3000 less than AA. Do you consider them vastly different airlines? I consider them very similar in size and scope. Even though their route structures vary and their contracts are far from identical, most everyone, lumps them in together as similar airlines. JB and AS are very similar in size, mission, fleet, focus of bases etc. etc.... Again, we can find differences but the companies look very similar. Just because your doppelgänger in Albuquerque maybe doesn’t like mayonnaise on his peanut butter sandwich as much as you do, that doesn’t mean he doesn’t look an awful lot like you.
