Stealing pilots from a LCC is actually helping the LCC's keep their pilot costs low. The legacy airlines have a lot of 12 yr pay first officers and captains at the far right of the payscale. When you hire a 4 yr jetblue first officer and they fill that seat with a newhire you are going from 150 an hour to 90 an hour. The problem with this whole deal is that the LCC become this land of those trapped by golden handcuffs and the odd balls who were never going to get hired by a legacy. Every airline has their fair share of doorknobs but when the hiring environment is like it has been your odds of working with people who make this job less enjoyable goes up at a LCC.
