Five years at a major, likely going to be furloughed. Passenger traffic forecasted to return to pre-CV levels in 2022/23. FedEx and UPS are both hiring, and cargo seems very immune to the typical calamities that torpedo AA/DL/UA, especially in a social distancing Amazon-dominated world.
I left WN off the list because they planned for a rainy day and will likely survive this.
Will be applying to FedEx and UPS this weekend.
Results may vary, but it ain't gonna happen fast. Might as well put in your app during this time of uncertainty and maybe once/if ever you get a call the picture will be a little clearer. We've got enough in the pool at FedEx to get us through the Summer. Hopefully they resume interviews in the not too distant future, but there's no telling right now.
