Regionals will be hiring again before anybody else, which is the logical next step for you CFIs out there. You've already committed a massive amount of time, money and hard work to obtain the necessary ratings. Pulling the plug right now imo would be the worst decision you could make. Ride the wave and weather the storm. Those who chose to abandon the career weren't cut out for it to begin with and those who keep their heads down and plug away will be rewarded. If you absolutely cannot pay your bills then pick up a side gig but you need to stay current for when the ship rights itself. I'm not generally an optimist but I do think we are close to the light at the end of the tunnel. And when you do get on with an airline, keep the CFI current. It amazes me the people I talk to that let their ticket lapse because they think they'll never need it again.
